Story Behind the Song
I wrote this song back in 1985 when I was working for the Government. One day I was fed up with what was happening around me and I wrote this song to express my feelings. I think you will like it...

Verse 1…
City people, black and white
Caught in a turmoil, caught in a fight
You need not believe me, if you choose
But if you don’t heed me, you stand to loose…
Chorus…
Everywhere, the Beast is at hand
Controller of minds, yeah, controller of man
He’s got it all planned out for you
The city people are the ones, who stand to loose…
(City People, City People)
Spoken: Alright City People, Listen up
Verse 2…
We’ve got a power, facing us
That we should battle, before the cost
Missing emotions, bred in man
The Beast controls us, do you understand…
Chorus…
Everywhere, the Beast is at hand
Controller of minds, yeah, controller of man
He’s got it all planned out for you
The city people are the ones, who stand to loose…
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah….
(City People, City People) oh
(Instumental Jam Session)
Come on – city people
Are you getting this??
Verse 3
If you’re wondering, who the Beast is (ha, ha)
Is so damn easy, easy to miss
Established powers, in government
Controls us people, is precisely meant…
Chorus…
Everywhere, the Beast is at hand
Controller of minds, yeah, controller of man
He’s got it all planned out for you
The city people are the ones, who stand to loose
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah….
(City People, City People)
Oh, yeah City People - The End
