"Heatwave" lyrics

"Heatwave"

My heart belongs in the city
Fighting my way through the crowd
Heart pounding in my body
Rattling the teeth in my mouth

Rock steady on the boulevard
In the heatwave
Rockin steady on the boulevard
In the heatwave

111th Street
Somebody pisses you off
Church rises on the main drag
Goin to church it's off
Old lady puts on her lipstick
Holy water and sweat
East river gonna rise up
Bury us all under the trash

Rock steady on the boulevard
In the heatwave
Rockin steady on the boulevard
In the heatwave
Ooooh
In the heatwave
Ooooh
It's a heatwave

Sidewalk is dirty, I'm delirious
The flowers risin through the cracks
Some simple bombs, the bombs is small
Give me heart attack
She puts her lips on a snow cone
Newspaper post goes off her bed
She knows exactly what she's doin
Bombs going off in her head

Rock steady on the boulevard
It's a heatwave
Keep rockin steady on the boulevard
It's a heatwave
Oooh
In the heatwave
Oooh
It's a heatwave
