Headless body in a topless bar Warring clans in lowered cars A buck is still a buck in Shanghai And a buck is all you earn A great night for all concerned Steel fingers play a deadly song Whole lotta Shakespeare going on And on and on It’s all happening downtown You painted daughters of the Tong underground Don’t mess around Welcome to China Town Well, you're in our town now Welcome to China Town Wooh Heroes aren't born, they're cornered And this corner is where we write the story Two tribes warring Downtown after hours The best to you each morning Can't survive and think to win Drugged into sin Next episode begins and begins And begins and begins It’s all happening downtown You painted daughters of the Tong underground Don’t mess around Welcome to China Town Well, you're in our town now Welcome to China Town It’s all happening downtown Welcome to my town, my town, my town It’s all happening downtown You painted daughters of the Tong underground Don’t mess around Welcome to China Town Well, you're in our town now Welcome to China Town Welcome to my town, my town, my town
