Lyrics:

ALLEYCATS

Hey Cats, let out your claws....It’s time to scratch
Hey Cats, ‘bout due to start some paying back
This dirty end of town is very still
An’ in the pool hall, an’ strip joints, man
It makes much more than looks t’ kill

Hey Cats, the shadows stretch long an’ black
Hey Cats, we’re past the point of turning back
The dead-end alley ways are razor sharp
Step lightly, old friend, or you’re apt to catch a blade in your back

Stay cool, look sharp, lie still
When the sun sinks low in that smoggy neon glow
Too late to brake....we’ve taken ‘bout all we’re gonna take

Hey, Mister....won’t ya come on down an’ see
Just how strange big city life can really be
You won’t read about it....on the Travel Page
You been lucky all your life
Well....that luck’s about to change!

Hey Cats, all it takes is just one scratch
Hey Cats, like dynamite set to a match
There’s a venom creeping through this dirty town
And all it takes is just one kiss to spread that poison ‘round

Sleepy London town is deadly ill
The cops, all fat and smug knows
It takes much more than looks to kill

Hey Boys, don’t worry we’ll see you again
Yeah Boys, (and) your next trip down the drain
There’s anger in the air too late to break
I say we’ve taken about all we’re gonna take

Alleycats … let ‘em claw
Alleycats … let ‘em scratch
Alleycats … craw ‘n’ scratch
Alleycats … if looks could kill
Alleycats … we had our fill
Alleycats … if looks could kill
