Under the Thumb

[Verse] Two keys locked tight tight Under the thumb thumb Life on edge no light Got the city numb numb [Verse 2] Streets whisper fear fear Footsteps echo wild wild Silent as they steer steer In the gangster's style style [Chorus] Under the thumb thumb thumb Where secrets never shine shine Hustlin' till kingdom come come Livin' on the line line [Verse 3] Heavy load we carry carry Shadows in the night night Every soul in a hurry hurry Sharp as a knife knife [Verse 4] Eyes watch from the dark dark Every move a play play Leave no mark mark In this deadly ballet [Bridge] Two keys to a life life Locked in a dangerous game game Balance on a knife knife In a world with no name
