The day begins with a waking yawn,
John doe rises to the crack of dawn,
Another day, another dollar,
Hes a workin stiff,
Another blue collar,
A cup of coffee and a cigarette,
The mornin news on his tv set,
Out the door and down the street,
His car radio plays that same \lquote ol beat,
Monkey see, monkey do, rap city,
This city will have it\rquote s way with you,
Rap city in blue,

In another part of the concrete jungle,
The natives are restles,they\rquote re ready to rumble,
Delinquent sons of degenerate fathers,
They do as they please cause no one bothers,
They re hatered is deep, it cuts like a blade,
They patrol their turf,
The place they once played, same old beat,
The sidewalks are stained,
With the blood of their victims,
Juveniles freed by judicial dictoms.

Monkey see, monkey do, rap city,
This city will have it s way with you,
Rap city in blue,
