(Anderson/Cocks)

Ow! The city man is killing me

My babe says don't come around

She's gotta go out and drink some bread

And the welfare man, he's been hanging 'round



There's trouble in the streets tonight

Short tempers heat and boil

Tension like a cobra snake

Set to strike that's stiffly coiled



I'm feelin' easy now, there's a smile on my face

Ooh, get me out of this place

GET ME OUT OF THIS PLACE!



The penny arcade is crazy

That people come here to play

Distorted mirrors keep starin' back

They got nothin' more to say



Anger burns inside of me

Give me a war to fight

I'm feelin' cold, feelin' restless

Out on the streets tonight



I'm feelin' easier now, there's a smile on my face

Ooh, get me out of this place

Gotta, get me out of this place!



The game is totally out of control

There's no place left to run

I'll find myself some freedom

With the business end of this gun



Like an animal being hunted

I got nothin' more to lose

This life that I was given

Sure as hell ain't the one I choose



I'm feelin' easier now, there's a smile on my face

I'm feelin' easier now, there's a smile on my face

Just, get me out of this place

Get me out of this place!



I want out of this place

I need out of this place, you gotta

Get me, get me out of this place



Gotta run, I gotta run, yeah I gotta run

Gotta get me out of this place...



I want out...yeah I want out...
