SAVAGE LYRICS
"Ain't No Fit Place" (1982 Single)
1. Ain't No Fit Place
2. The China Run
1. Ain't No Fit Place
A clock screams midnight
In the desperate heart of town
The same old nightmare
Something heavy’s going down
Shouting, screaming
Pain on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place
The city sleeps within
Plans are laid for tonight
This calm is unstable
Just one spark could ignite
Fire burning
Hate on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place
Unheard warning
Nothing heard, nothing seen, nothing done
You think it’s over
Stupid fool, it’s just begun
Shock, confusion
Shame on every face
If you listen loud enough
You can hear it said
This ain’t no fit place
2. The China Run
See the opium warlords
Feuding in the golden states
Who wins takes the contracts
To feed the western tastes
On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooke
One more fool on the China Run
From mountains deep in Asia
To the west, contramand by sea
Raw juice refined to addiction
Big bucks out in the streets
On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooked
One more fool on the China Run
See the heroin dealer
Stealing off the kids getting high
On the edge, some kid slipping slowly
That final step’s just a matter of time
On and on and on
From here to kingdom come
One slip, you’re hooked
One more fool on the China Run
