Night comes down so quickly here you don't even hear it fall
The neighbours keep their house behind a ten foot red brick wall
The postman walks a guard dog and the milkman drives a tank
The cheif of the police force is the chairman of the band
Living here is easy to do - everybody would agree
I won't worry 'bout you and don't worry 'bout me
People here don't smile too much as they drive to work each day
To offices in buildings that are tall and dark and grey
Hear their conversations during lunchtime over snacks
Of rights and writs and rates and real estate and rising tax
Living here is easy to do - everybody would agree
I won't worry 'bout you and don't worry 'bout me
And in the still of the evening
In the silence when there's no one around
You come to me without any warning
Without any sound
Heaven help the heretic and outlaw on the loose
People here don't like you if your mind's not in their noose
The streets are full of sschoolgirls pushing baby pramsans with bars
And altar boys with dressings on their knees to hide the scars
Living here is easy to do - everybody would agree
I won't worry 'bout you and don't worry 'bout me
Stand back and let it all be
Stand back and let it all be
Stand back and let it all be
And don'tyou worry 'bout me
