Gotham City God Damn (All Star) Lyrics

[Verse 1: Tribe One]
There's a war going on outside
No one is safe from
And it's a fight for survival from day one
You can try and you might save some
But this city's stains won't wash away when the rains come
We got the mob and odds with cops' squadrons
Folks who lost it all and snobs with stock options
And maybe every city's got problems
But if it's not rock bottom it's not Gotham
The average citizen is traveling
The path of least resistance
Happily oblivious to tragedies and victims
They have to be; they have to feed
Their families and children
And practice apathy when rays of casualties arisen
Psychopaths will
Perpetrate our massacres and killings
Escaping Arkham
Breaking out of Black Gate prison
Police are understaffed
Trying, capturing the villains
Just to slap 'em on the wrist
And spit 'em back into the system

[Chorus]
Metropolis got me so upset
And Keystone City made me lose my rest
But, everybody knows about Gotham city
God damn
Blüdhaven got me so upset
And Star City made me lose my rest
But, everybody knows about Gotham City
God damn

[Verse 2: Tribe One]
There's blood on the streets and the streets are the veins
Running red as the leaves when the seasons change
And the pulse isn't just a heart beat; It's a bang
When the people smile
They show sharp teeth and fangs
With a lung full of laughing gas and fear toxins
Venom flower blossoms and crime bible doctrine
Yeah maybe every city's got problems
But if it's not rock bottom, it's not Gotham
We don't have a guardian from another planet
Understand that this city would rip him into shreds
And we don't have mystical witches that study magic
What we have are average men and women driven to the edge
Something happens and they snap
And turn from honest into evil
Instead of getting justice they're living for revenge
And some of them are monsters
But all of them are people but so are the heroes
Who have a city to defend

[Chorus]
Metropolis got me so upset
And Cove[?] City made me lose my rest
But, everybody knows about Gotham City
God damn
Central City got me so upset
And Opal City made me lose my rest
But, everybody knows about Gotham City
God damn
