A guy wakes up at his place far out in the country and misses his time in the bustling city.

lyrics

URBAN SOLUTION

I wake up in the morning, see the chickens in the yard
But I’ve get a yearning for buses and cars
Sirens use to howl out my window late at night
It’s so quiet here, I can’t sleep tight
I want to breath some pollution again
I just want another hit - of Urban Solution.

I bought a place in the country, but my neighbor claimed my land
Came into my yard with a shotgun in his hand
I went to court for years, won the place but lost my bread
I complained to my lawyer and this is what he said
Son, it ain’t in the constitution…
You just need another hit of Urban Solution.

So I sit up on my hill and watch the valleys and the peaks
I hide from the locals and I hide from the freaks
I’d rather hit the Westside, dig the chippies and the geeks
Gonna move up to a high rise where my roof never leaks
I want to make my contribution
I just need another hit of Urban Solution.

I used to smoke a reefer, hit the streets late at night
And dig all the litter and the glitter and the light
Well I ain’t had that much fun since I was just a punk in school
From time to time I need my urban renewal
I want to get my restitution
I just need another hit of Urban Solution.
