(Stranger, stranger, stranger, stranger)
It’s hot here at night, lonely, black and quiet
On a hot summer night
Don’t be afraid of the world we made
On a hot summer night
‘Cause when a long-legged lovely walks by
Yeah you can see the look in her eye
Then you know that it’s
Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight
Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight
(Stranger, stranger)
For all the dreams and schemes,
people are as they seem
On a hot summer night
Don’t be no fun, don’t forget you’re young
On a hot summer night
A sometime someone you’re not
Don’t wait to see what you’ve got
‘Cause you know that you're
Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight
Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight
We’ll walk until my feet drop
I’m a train when I’m hateful
Yeah, lay right down now
And ride until your head breaks
I’m a-walkin’ ‘til my brain pops
I will move with the beat now
I’m a chain ‘round an A-bomb
I’m a ribbon in the heat now
New York!
Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight
Hot in the city, hot in the city tonight, tonight
