Oh, the city's alight with lovers and lies and bright blue eyes
Oh, the city is bright, it's brighter than day tonight
(Surrender, surrender)
(Surrender, surrender)
Sadie said she couldn't work out what it was all about and so she let go
Now Sadie's on the street and the people she meets, you know
She tried to be a good girl and a good wife
Raise a good family, lead a good life, it's not good enough
She got herself up on the 48th floor
Gotta find out, find out what she's livin' for
(Surrender, surrender)
(Surrender, surrender)
Oh, the city's afire, a passionate flame that knows me by name
Oh, the city's desire to take me for more and more
Well, it's in the street gettin' under my feet
It's in the air, it's everywhere I look for you
Well, it's in the things I do and say
And if I wanna live I gotta die to myself someday
Papa, sing my, sing my song
Papa, sing my, sing my song
Papa, sing my, sing my song
Papa, sing my, sing my song
(Surrender, surrender)
(Surrender, surrender)
