The boys and the Dukes are ready to rumble The word on the street, some heads are gonna tumble Blades gonna flash when the street gangs clash In this avenue tonight When the lightning strikes Zip Gun Johnny's finger is itchin' Oh, the lid's gonna blow up in Hell's Kitchen It's an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth It's so ruthless when they fight When the lightning strikes (ooh) And it's a free for all in the parking lot Tell me who'll rule the street And the night explodes when the cops bring down the heat And the chains they crash like thunder While the weak ones all retreat Gotta draw first blood or they'll read your funeral rights When the lightning strikes It's dog-eat-dog when you're meetin' your rival In the combat zone it's a means of survival Gonna get last licks on a suicide blitz On a cloak and dagger night When the lightning strikes Ooh, it's a free for all in the parking lot Over who'll rule the street And the night explodes when the cops bring down the heat And the chains they crash like a thunder While the weak ones all retreat Gotta draw first blood or they'll read your funeral rights When the lightning strikes When the lightning strikes When the lightning strikes Can't you hear the thunder when lightning strikes? Can't you hear the thunder when the lightning strikes? Can't you, can't you, can't you hear the thunder, lightning strikes Can't you, can't you, can't you hear the thunder when the lightning strikes? Can't you, can't you, can't you hear the thunder when the lightning strikes? Can't you, can't you, can't you hear the thunder when the lightning strikes? Can't you, can't you, can't you hear the thunder when the lightning strikes?

Lightning strikes again. To waken life within. A shock runs through our hearts. Our veins are torn apart. And into night we fled, with thoughts of home inside our heads. We found the latches locked. In the rain all night we knocked, and knocked and no one came. Forgotten voices voiced in vein. Truth did free my mind. Fear locked the door behind. And now we're all alone. Outside the walls we once called home.

Now lightning strikes in old New York It may be dark but I wanna talk It might rain, it might snow Too many things I got to know If this is spring than it's time to sing Never mind the l'il birdies wing Look out, look out, old New York New York's coming an' New York talks Hey! Strike! Not once... Strike! But twice! Get out your money - peel a slab Roll some notes an' hail a cab Drive in church drive in back Drive down Seventh in a tank Take in the sights, feel the breeze See New York's one and only tree It can be found in Garbage park But don't inspect it after dark Strike! New York! Lightning! Not once but twice. Accidental hike in the transit strike Roller skate or ride a bike Three to a car, Brooklyn Bridge You won't get far if you're privileged Graffiti Jack sprays in black An Englishman can he read it back? Deli Joe he ought to know He runs the gang on Pastrami Row Strike! Lightning strike! Because glass to glass, street to street Buildings touch St. Peter's feet From car to bar, prez to shah Everything is in the jar The 4 winds blow cos the 4 winds know Takes a special hustle to make a roll Honey girl on her feet I wish everything to make her sweet Strike! Twice! OK so roll! From Harlem! Strike one! Harlem slum to penthouse block On every door I already knocked There wasn't anybody that I didn't leave alone Somebody lying under every stone Everything that a man could need In a bag down by my knee That looks good, this ain't got seeds Cheaper than booze down in the bowery Lightning strike! Old New York! Everything's light! Strike! Hey ho such a night I'll see y'all when the lightning strike A polaroid caught in the act You're married too and that's a fact But I won't peek and I won't squeek Down by the trucks on Christopher Street It's Cuban Day - Oi Vey Chinese New Year let's call it a day Tootsie! Hey Chi man! That melody is Puerto Rican Hey Chi man is what he's speaking An' there's the road down into London Town Where many cars get broken down It's the Westway from Ladbroke Grove Runs down to Old Hounslow Just thought I'd mention the new extention That run's down the 59th street intersection Did you hear the news y'all? London Town on the Broadway!

She, queen of the kings Runnin' so fast, beatin' the wind Nothin' in this world can stop the spread of her wings She, queen of the kings Broken her cage, threw out the keys She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas Got raven hair, it's dark as night Icy eyes, outta sight, outta sight Her heart, in spite, is warm and bright Her smile awakes the northern lights Lookin' out, she calls Lai, da-da-di-dai-da Who will conquer all? Her name is She, queen of the kings Runnin' so fast, beatin' the wind (hey) Nothin' in this world can stop the spread of her wings She, queen of the kings Broken her cage, threw out the keys (hey) She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas She, queen of the kings Runnin' so fast, beatin' the wind (hey) Nothin' in this world can stop the spread of her wings She, queen of the kings Broken her cage, threw out the keys She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas A firestone forged in flames Wildest card, run the game, run the game Can't stay the same in this world of change Don't fear the pain, just break the chain Lookin' out, she calls Lai, da-da-di-dai-da Who will conquer all? Her name is She, queen of the kings Runnin' so fast, beatin' the wind (hey) Nothin' in this world can stop the spread of her wings She, queen of the kings Broken her cage, threw out the keys (hey) She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas She, queen of the kings Runnin' so fast, beatin' the wind (hey) Nothin' in this world can stop the spread of her wings She, queen of the kings Broken her cage, threw out the keys She will be the warrior of North and Southern seas
