Get to the heart

Baby, the heart of the city

Meet me in a fire fight

Of lusty boys in candlelight

Beat to the heart, baby the heart of the city

Veins pop and cry for more

And lick it off the killing floor



D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-d-downtown akron!



Move to the beat. baby the beat of the city

Rubber glove me when you love me

Promise me protection

Dance to the heat, baby the heat of the city

Glorify my oozing head

And raise me from the living dead



D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-d-downtown akron!



Downtown me - baby strip me

Chop me, adopt me, bend me like a rubber dolly

Downtown me - demolition me

Raise me, appraise me, the portage hotel and me

Downtown me - with a lobotomy

Take me to the cuyahoga valley and make a man of me



Get to the heart, baby the heart of the city

Say you love it when you shove it

Don't be sentimental

Move to the heart, baby - the heart of the city

This is where the future lies

Beneath the burning sulphur skies



D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-downtown c'mon

D-d-d-d-downtown akron!
