The Message (Re-Recorded Remastered Version) - Grandmaster Flash[00:00:00]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:00:24]

It makes me wonder[00:00:25]

How I keep from going under[00:00:26]

Broken glass everywhere[00:00:33]

People pissing on the stairs[00:00:35]

You know they just don't care[00:00:36]

I can't take the smell[00:00:38]

I can't take the noise no more[00:00:39]

Got no money to move out[00:00:40]

I guess I got no choice[00:00:41]

Rats in the front room[00:00:42]

Cockroaches in the back[00:00:44]

Junkie's in the alley with a baseball bat[00:00:45]

I tried to get away[00:00:47]

But I couldn't get far[00:00:48]

'Cause a man with a tow-truck[00:00:49]

Repossessed my car[00:00:50]

Don't push me cause[00:00:52]

I'm close to the edge[00:00:54]

I'm trying not to lose my head [00:00:56]

Ah huh-huh-huh[00:01:01]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:01:02]

It makes me wonder[00:01:03]

How I keep from going under[00:01:03]

Standing on the front stoop[00:01:06]

Hangin' out the window[00:01:07]

Watching all the cars go by[00:01:09]

Roaring as the breezes blow[00:01:10]

Crazy lady livin' in a bag[00:01:11]

Eatin' out of garbage pails[00:01:13]

She used to be a fag-hag[00:01:14]

Said she danced the tango[00:01:16]

Skipped the light fandango[00:01:17]

The Zircon Princess seemed[00:01:18]

To lost her senses[00:01:19]

Down at the peepshow[00:01:20]

Watching all the creeps[00:01:21]

So she can tell the stories[00:01:23]

To the girls back home[00:01:24]

She went to the city and[00:01:25]

Got So-So-So Ditty[00:01:26]

She had to get a pimp[00:01:27]

She couldn't make it on her own[00:01:28]

Don't push me cause[00:01:30]

I'm close to the edge[00:01:32]

I'm trying not to lose my head [00:01:35]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:01:39]

It makes me wonder[00:01:41]

How I keep from going under[00:01:41]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:01:44]

It makes me wonder[00:01:45]

How I keep from going under[00:01:46]

My brother's doing bad[00:01:49]

Took my mother's TV[00:01:49]

Says she watches too much[00:01:51]

Its just not healthy[00:01:52]

All My Children in the daytime[00:01:53]

Dallas at night[00:01:55]

Can't even see the game or[00:01:56]

The Sugar Ray fight[00:01:57]

The bill collectors that ring my phone[00:01:58]

And scare my wife when[00:02:01]

I'm not home[00:02:02]

Got a bum education[00:02:03]

Double-digit inflation[00:02:04]

Can't take the train to the job[00:02:05]

There's a strike at the station[00:02:06]

Neon King Kong standin on my back[00:02:08]

Can't stop to turn around[00:02:10]

Broke my sacroiliac[00:02:11]

A mid-range migraine[00:02:12]

Cancered membrane[00:02:14]

Sometimes I think I'm going insane[00:02:15]

I swear I might hijack a plane[00:02:16]

Don't push me cause[00:02:17]

I'm close to the edge[00:02:19]

I'm trying not to lose my head [00:02:22]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:02:27]

It makes me wonder[00:02:28]

How I keep from going under[00:02:29]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:02:32]

It makes me wonder[00:02:32]

How I keep from going under[00:02:33]

A child is born with[00:02:45]

No state of mind[00:02:46]

Blind to the ways of mankind[00:02:48]

God is smiling on you[00:02:50]

But he's frowning too[00:02:51]

Because only God knows[00:02:52]

What youll go through[00:02:54]

Youll grow in the ghetto[00:02:55]

Living second rate[00:02:56]

And your eyes will sing[00:02:57]

A song of deep hate[00:02:58]

The places you play[00:03:00]

And where you stay[00:03:01]

Looks like one great big alley way[00:03:02]

You'll admire all the number book takers[00:03:04]

Thugs pimps pushers[00:03:07]

And the big money makers[00:03:08]

Driving big cars [00:03:09]

Spending twenties and tens[00:03:10]

And you wanna grow up[00:03:11]

To be just like them huh [00:03:12]

Smugglers scramblers[00:03:14]

Burglars gamblers[00:03:15]

Pickpockets peddlers even panhandlers[00:03:16]

You say: I'm cool I'm no fool [00:03:19]

But then you wind up[00:03:21]

Dropping out of high school[00:03:22]

Now you're unemployed[00:03:23]

All non-void[00:03:24]

Walking round like[00:03:26]

You're Pretty Boy Floyd[00:03:27]

Turned stickup kid[00:03:28]

Look what youve done did[00:03:29]

Got sent up for a eight year bid[00:03:30]

Now your manhood is took[00:03:33]

And you're a Maytag[00:03:34]

Spent the next two years[00:03:35]

As a undercover fag[00:03:36]

Being used and abused[00:03:37]

And served like hell[00:03:39]

'Til one day you was found[00:03:40]

Hung dead in your cell[00:03:41]

It was plain to see that[00:03:42]

Your life was lost[00:03:43]

You was cold and[00:03:45]

Your body swung back and forth[00:03:46]

But now your eyes sing the sad[00:03:47]

Sad song[00:03:48]

Of how you lived[00:03:49]

So fast and died so young[00:03:50]

So don't push me cause[00:03:51]

I'm close to the edge[00:03:54]

I'm trying not to lose my head[00:03:57]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:04:02]

It makes me wonder[00:04:03]

How I keep from going under [00:04:03]

It's like a jungle sometimes[00:04:06]

It makes me wonder how[00:04:07]

I keep from going under[00:04:08]
