this is my chiba city
i am case
my molly's already
been here and gone
but this city's as pretty
as it is deadly
the docs'll fix anything
for a price
and if it's that ya can't swing
ya'll be in debt for life
crime runs like water
in those dirty streets
the nights are even hotter
than the days
with the cops on their beats
the only people
who have power
are those from the steeple
and those that get payed
not by the hour
but by the things they sell
or by gettin layed
but either way
they're goin to hell
the city lights
are the flourescant nights
the only safe places
are the clubs with the fights
and with the cyber aces
chiba city overlooks a bay
so does my city
damn it's pretty
but it's dangerous to stay
all my scars were made right here
and the wounds were fixed
by the docs that still stitch
but now it's time for me to disappear
