[Verse 1]
No sun will shine in my day today
The high yellow moon won't come out to play
And I say darkness has covered my light
And has changed my day into night
Where is the love to be found?
Tell me please, 'cause I must be somewhere to be found
Instead of concrete jungle
Where the living is hardest
Concrete jungle
Oh man, you've got to do your best

[Verse 2]
No chains around my feet but I'm not free
I know I am bound here in captivity
Yeah, I'll never know what happiness is
I'll never know what sweet caress is
Still, I'll be always laughing like a clown
Won't someone help me, please?
'Cause, I've got to pick myself from off the ground
In this concrete jungle
What do you got for me?
Concrete jungle
Oh man, why can't you let me be?
