Tough Guys Songtext
von King Kong

Everybody wants to look tough in the city
Everybody wants to be tough in the city
Everybody′s got to be tough in the city

Slim Jim
What you gonna do to him?
Slim Jim
What you gonna do to him?

John Doe
Bend over
His hands on his guts
His mouth wide open
His face is all screwed up

Slim Jim
Are you gonna do him in?


Everybody wants to look tough in the city
Everybody wants to be tough in the city
Everybody's got to be tough in the city
Everybody wants to look tough in the city
Everybody wants to be tough in the city
Everybody′s got to be tough in the city

In the city
In the city
In the city
In the city

Slim Jim
Don't you know that
John Doe has got a family?
Don't you know that
John Doe is just like you?
Slim Jim
Must you make his babies cry
Just to prove that you′re a tough guy?

Tough guy
Tough guy
Tough guy
Tough guys


On the streets
Show them that you′re serious
Show them what you're made of
You′re a tough guy

Parking lot
It's easy to survive
But to thrive you have got to be a tough guy

Neighborhood
Cigarettes look good but they are not enough
If you really want to be a tough guy
You′ve got to cannibalize somebody

Screwy Louie
Scary Larry
Johnny Dangerous
Maurice the Murderer
One-Eyed Ike
Jose the Horrible
Sloped Forehead Ted

Slim Jim
And John Doe
All of them are tough guys
They're all dead
