Nylons - Combat Zone Lyrics
In every neighbourhoodThere is bad and goodMoneys tight, prices overblownThey sell ecstasyHere on avenue bOne way ticket to the combat zoneThe streets are fast and toughAnd if youre tough enoughChances are you can make it on your ownLife on overdriveYou could learn to surviveLivin life in the combat zoneChorusKeep your ear to the groundKeep your shoulder to the wheelKeep your finger on the pulseAnd you can make itKeep your eye on the diceKeep your back to the wallOne step ahead of the gameAnd you can make itHere is the place, now is the timeIts up to you (get ready now)You better be on your guardSometimes youre blind, you carry on(business as usual)How can we be so hard?You can run awayOr, you can choose to stayEither way, life can chill you to the boneYou know that golden ruleDont be nobodys foolPlay it cool, in the combat zoneChorusWatch what you sayWatch what you doIts up to you (get ready now)Theyll take you for a rideBefore youre bought and soldGet it upGet it under control (get ready now)Theres nowhere you can hideChorusCant people understandTheres a world at your commandCant we trust one another?What does it take to make you seeWe share one destinyAnd nothing lasts foreverHigher, this could be the visionThat weve both been dreamin of...Higher, and so much brighterThan the stars that shine above
