Get to the heart Baby, the heart of the city Meet me in a fire fight Of lusty boys in candlelight Beat to the heart, baby the heart of the city Veins pop and cry for more And lick it off the killing floor D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-d-downtown Akron! Move to the beat. baby the beat of the city Rubber glove me when you love me Promise me protection Dance to the heat, baby the heat of the city Glorify my oozing head And raise me from the living dead D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-d-downtown Akron! Downtown me - baby strip me Chop me, adopt me, bend me like a rubber dolly Downtown me - demolition me Raise me, appraise me, the portage hotel and me Downtown me - with a lobotomy Take me to the Cuyahoga valley and make a man of me Get to the heart, baby the heart of the city Say you love it when you shove it Don't be sentimental Move to the heart, baby - the heart of the city This is where the future lies Beneath the burning sulfur skies D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-downtown c'mon D-d-d-d-downtown Akron!
