Night Rains

Night rains rains down on the city Night rains through a flood of lights You hear the lightning crack Feels like an urban heart attack In the murmur of the night Subway trains surge through the veins Mainline to the heart of the city Angry neon flashing The city's wild eyed and pretty Night rains rains down on the city Night rains through a flood of lights You hear the lightning crack Feels like an urban heart attack In the murmur of the night Streetlamps like pneumatic drills Pounding the pavement with light Headlights barrel along the highway Like pot shots into the night Night rains rains down on the city Night rains through a flood of lights You hear the lightning crack Feels like an urban heart attack In the murmur of the night Some guy gives you the finger But it feels like a fist You can't hear what he's gesticulating But you get the gist
