Lyrics: Willy Deville. Backstreets Of Desire. Chemical Warfare.

:
Down in the bodega
Out in the street
Somebody wants a taste
Everybody wants a piece
?cos that?s chemical warfire

You hear it on the radio
You see it on T.V.
Another widow on the list
This you must believe

Now Mr. President he told me
This traffic he gonna stop
Get rid of undesirables
By bringig in the cops
This is chemical warfare
This is chemical warfare
This is chemical warfare

Everybody knows a Johnny
Who just passed away
Big wheels count their dollars
While the families count their prayers
Hey hey hey hey

Children with bright futures
Smiles on their faces
Sink to the floor
Tied off tight
Like the knots in their shoe laces
Chemical warfare
Now the politicians tell you
They gonna stamp out this desease
Take out the trash
Bring in the police ? Chemical warfare
Hey hey Chemical warfare
Chemical warfare - Chemical warfare

Everybody knows a Johnny
Who just passed away
Big wheels count their dollars
While the families count their prayers
Hey hey
Chemical warfare, Chemical warfare
