charge your decks its kill city
skaters concrete call
battered world of kerbs andn rails
banks ann plywood walls
flip our boards and flip our minds
adrenaline’s the pill
dive for cover watch your back
our skating set to kill
kill! kill city
In our world our uniform
designed to slay and shock
you hear our chant through empty streets
the echoed voice of rock
a chain gang with a solid link
grip tape is our bind
you know us by our scabs and scars
our blood is our sign
risk our lives to seek a thrill
branded by cement
leave our flesh for you to see
until our body’s spent
keep your superficial lives
we’re the wild and free
born into a life extreme
we thrash in kill city
kill! kill city
join with us and walk the world
in search of shadow lands
the fabled skate park of our dreams
and myths of metal bands
we’ll skate beside the gods of rock
and rest in Avalon
we’ll ride with dragons breathing fire
and grind through Babylon
kill! kill city
