Stop and go on an empty crossing
  The lights keep changing to only their hum
  And standing in line along the kerb
  The binbags wait till the morning comes
  You hear yourself walk echo lonely
  See shadows move in every door
  Are you sure that's your own footsteps behind?
  Is there really nothing to turn round for?
    [Chorus:]
  And you feel that you're always gonna walk the city streets all on your own
  The night is dark as a car crawls by
  And the road goes on and on
  They don't care about you
  They never even think about you
  Cos they're gonna do without you .... and you're gone
    Just another big city night
    Over your shoulder, round every corner
  Remember what's happened to people you've known
  Watch for yourself cos no-one else will
  You're gonna get it if you're alone
  Suddenly a stab from a knife out of nowhere
  Jumped from behind like they always do
  It only makes one line in the paper you read
  Somebody got it .... but it wasn't you
    [Chorus]
    Just another big city night
  Who's it gonna be tonight?
