Mad Bad Town - The Attic

Contemplating suicide, looking for somewhere to hide

Well you better not, you better not shout too loud

Standing in the pouring rain, looking for someone to blame

Whoever said that, you’re taking the easy way out

Well I’ve combed this place right upside down

Living ain’t easy in a mad bad town

And there’s always someone there to put you down

Working for a better life, looking on the brighter side

It’s a nightmare, just for you to survive

Standing on your own two feet, looking for someone to beat

You’re a victim, you’ll never get out alive

Well I’ve combed this place right upside down

Living ain’t easy in a mad bad town

And there’s always someone there to put you down

And year after year it’s the same old tale

Schemes and dreams that always fail

And there’s always someone there to take your place

Sitting in a comfy chair, feeling like a millionaire

Well you better not, you better not get too slack

Someone’s gonna bring you down, someone’s gonna make you frown

They’re gonna stab you, stab you in your back

Well I’ve combed this place right upside down

Living ain’t easy in a mad bad town

And there’s always someone there to put you down
