Big Apple Lyrics - Islands - Kajagoogoo

(VERSE 1) 

See my face you know where I've been 

Walking in jungle 

Cruising down boulevard part of the race 

Taking a tumble 

(BRIDGE 1) 

Loving a stranger 

Is fearing from danger 

Is crying in some avenue 

And soon the hate will be there... 

(VERSE 2) 

Assassin with gun is taking his aim 

To target his rival 

And tossing the street is a dangerous game 

The stakes are survival 

(BRIDGE 2) 

Love in that stranger 

Still fearing that danger 

Still crying in some avenue 

And soon the hate will be there too 

(CHORUS 1) 

Life in the Big Apple moves very fast 

And so must you 

Do like the others do 

And don't you drag your heels 

Life in the Big Apple moves very fast... 

(VERSE 3) 

Cops on route are hot in pursuit 

As windows are shattered 

Caf and arcade are teeming with loot 

The sidewalks are scattered 

(BRIDGE 3) 

Walking down highways 

Just seeing things my way 

While dealer man enjoys his wealth 

You spare the rope, he'll hang himself 

(CHORUS 2) 

Life in the Big Apple moves very fast 

And so must you 

Do like the others do 

And don't you drag your heels 

Life in the Big Apple moves very fast 

And so must you 

Do like the others do 

And don't you drag your... 

Drag your... 

(FINAL CHORUS) 

Life in the Big Apple moves very fast 

And so must you 

Do like the others do 

And don't you drag your heels 

(REPEAT FINAL CHORUS TO FADE)
