lyrics

On the edge of the desert, yeah
It sure is hot
I should be saving water
But I drank the last drop
A glipse of the city, how much it’d be worth
but all I see is ashes on this brown scorched earth

in power city
that’s where I wanna go
hear everyone sing
you can have anything

From the fat spice-merchants of the sunken bazzar
you can buy yourself a princess from a land that’s far
the threat of a strike sounds it out loud
as the guards close in they look to the clouds

in power ciy
that’s where i wanna be
in power city
hear everyone sing
you can have anything
hear everyone sings
and winning is king

Poor people living like there’s no tomorrow
if you can’t pay they’ll let you beg to borrow


There’s people turning diamonds into dynamite
but our boy won the election so we’re doing alright?
now you can occupy the market, or occupy the town
but it’s just another riot ‘till you wear the king’s crown!

in power ciy
that’s where i wanna be
in power city
hear everyone sing
you can have anything
hear everyone sings
and winning is king
etc
