Verse 1
G
Em
There was a lot of rocking going on that night
G
Em
Cruising time for the young bright lights
G
Just down past the gasworks,
Em
by the meat factory door
C
The five lamp boys were coming on strong
G
The Saturday night city beat
G
And the, the pulse of the corner boys
Em
just sprang into action
G
And young Billy watched it all
Em
un der the yellow street light

And said "tonight of all nights,
Em
there's gonna be a fight"
Verse 2
G
Em
Billy don't like it living here in this town
G
He says the traps have been sprung

long before he was born

He says "hope bites the dust

behind all the closed doors"
Em
from its scab crusted sores
C
There's screaming and crying
in the high-rise blocks"
G
D
It's a rat trap Billy, but you're already caught
Em
And you can make it if you wanna
or you need it bad enough

You're young and good-looking
and you're acting kind of tough
Chorus 1
G
Anyway it's Saturday night
D
time to see what's going down
Em
Put on the bright suit Billy,
head for the right side of town
C
It's only 8 o'clock but you're already bored

You don't know what it is
D
but, there's got to be more
Em
You'd better find a way out,
hey kick down that door

It's a rat trap and you've been caught
