I wasn't born for this drab city life
never gonna work from 9 to 5
a voice telling me deep inside
i don't belong to this world of suit and tie
who lives only for bread and circuses
i need more than just mtv
there ain't no future of any kind
`cuz we ain't got a one-way ticket to ride
We got to getaway from the ghettoway car
i got to getaway from the ghettoway car
i got to getaway from the ghettoway car
i got to gotta gotta gotta getaway!
They try to get you dead or alive
i wouldn't sell my soul for a dime
i need a chance that never get
still got in me some self-respect
mr. corruption rules the city of sin
born to lose but i never give in
you better act on my advice
fuck that one-way ticket you ride
[chorus]
