The city is at a war
A place among the young and rich
Ignore me if you see me 'cause I just don't give a shit
The city is at war
Bless the young and rich
With designer drugs and designer friends
The city is at a war
A place among the young and rich
Ignore me if you see me 'cause I just don't give a shit
The city is at war
Bless the young and rich
With designer drugs and designer friends
Here's how it goes
It's about who you know
If you
Got money you get in for free
Get on your knees if you wanna reach the top
The party never stops (never stops)
Don't stop now (don't stop now)
Come on!
Stick around and see how it ends
Get the money and run
And meet me at the parking lot
Bang bang! Shoot 'em up yeah [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/cobra_starship/the_city_is_at_war.html ]
The city is at a war
A place among the young and rich
Ignore me if you see me 'cause I just don't give a shit
The city is at war
Bless the young and rich
With designer drugs and designer friends
Oh oh oh oh oh
This little girl was alone in the world
Until she
Found a way to get a fix for free
Oh pretty please
It breaks my heart to see
Another tragedy she finally got her picture on TV
Come on!
Live it up while you can
We all lose in the end
No you don't get another shot
Bang bang! Shoot 'em up, yeah
The city is at a war
A place among the young and rich
Ignore me if you see me 'cause I just don't give a shit
The city is at war
Bless the young and rich
With designer drugs and designer friends
The city is at war
The city is at war
The city is at war
War oh oh
Bang bang! Shoot 'em up,
Shoot 'em up, yeah
Bang bang! Shoot 'em up,
Shoot 'em up, yeah (the city is at war)
Bang bang! Shoot 'em up,
Shoot 'em up, yeah
Bang bang! Shoot 'em up,
Shoot 'em up, yeah.
This song is about hollywood. How the other people are tired of the young and rich making a bad name for their town. They are tired of the partying, drugs and all that kind of stuff.
Great work by cobra starship. Really enjoying this track the most.
Not positive, but pretty sure that these lyrics:
"this little girl was alone in the world. Until she found a way to get a fix for free oh pretty please. It breaks my heart to see . Another tragedy she finally got her picture on tv"
meant she turned tricks for drugs and od'd. And yeah, great song. It's about how depserate people are to make it in hollywood, but most of them get fucked up on drugs.
Love the song... And the lyrics. Tis about hollywood and how it's so... For lack of better words, bad! Like, "this little girl was alone in the world. Until she found a way to get a fix for free oh pretty please. It breaks my heart to see . Another tragedy she finally got her picture on tv" i think that means like their trying to say that she'll get into bad things and it's a tragedy because of what will happen. ((i've head our record label practically owns our ass))
You know alot of times i listened to the song and never actually read the lyrics , i mean i knew them but i never actually read them.
I agree with oh-shit_casey
Yea it is about how rich kids get aught up in drugs
Like with the shoot em up , that means like heroine and stuff like that
and this is one of my favorite songs ,and it has a good lesson ( oh and if u didn't catch it , it's drugs are bad! ) ! Double threat!
Wow, i like the beat but like it tells you what has happened to people but like, drugs jus' aren't my thing, but a good song. But i dont think it has a meaning lol
I stand corrected. This song is actually about drugs.
When it says "meet me at the parking lot
bang bang! Shoot 'em up yeah"
that means go to the parking lot and make a drug deal and then shoot em up means shoot up on heroine. Then the verse:
this little girl was alone in the world
until she
found a way to get a fix for free
oh pretty please
it breaks my heart to see
another tragedy she finally got her picture on tv
means:there was this girl who didn't have anything, then she found drugs, it breaks his heart to see another person get lost in drugs and she got caught and now her picture is on tv.
I think it's about how the rich always get what they want but they are very dramatic and try to always have drama in their lives. Even though they say they don't like it it's what the "rich" strive for.
