Blood In The City

Katie is sitting in her armored truck
Just waiting for the fuse to blow
And there's man to man with his human rights
Just waiting for the love to blow
There's blood in the city
The soldiers in the street
There's blood in the city
Felt like a wound beneath my feet

Madness is a social kiss
It just had to come to this
Kilroy and his final wish
He wrote it on the wall

All night long the fires burn
While the politician speaks
It's too late for words, it's too late for lies
It's too late because the dogs are in the street
Blood in the city
Oh, what a night out on the town
Well, there's blood in the city
And there's a mayhem all around

Madness is a social kiss
It just had to come to this
Kilroy and his final wish
He wrote it on the wall

Oh, you don't need a song and you don't need a prayer
And you won't need a crystal ball
Love heals, poison kills
What sense is there at all?
Oh, there's blood in the city
The viper's in the street
There's love in the city
And he's dying on his feet

Oh, madness is a social kiss
It just had to come to this
Kilroy had his final wish
He wrote it on the wall
