Any songs which mention this stuff in the lyrics?

Concrete and Clay - Unit 4+2 and also a hit by Randy Edelman.

Why?

One of the Geto Boys got his hands all bloody from punching on the concrete on "Mind Playing Tricks On Me". Plenty of tracks mention concrete jungles surely.

Because one of my friends just phoned me in a panic (he needs it as documentary background music) but I began to suffer from mind blankness and couldn't think of anything.

Well maybe not the Geto Boys then unless it's a documentary which needs lots of swearing.

Midnight on the Murder Mile by carter usm song lifts "the concrete and the clay"

Death in Vegas used to be on a label called Concrete as far as I remember. That's probably no help though.

Kevin Rowland also does a v. nice version of 'Concrete and Clay'.

Or - on the same theme as Dave's Replacements pick - "The Portland Cement Factory at Monolith, California" by John Fahey.

Operation Ivy - 'Concrete and Chaos rise up...' "Big City"

Use some "Musique Concrete" and let the hipper members of the audience nod knowingly.

"At Peace With Concrete" by Urban Tribe, which has no vocals but the beat sure sounds like something's being slammed against concrete.

"I'm Bad" by LL Cool J: "Walking down the street to a hardcore beat while my JVC vibrates the concrete." I think it goes that way.

underworld - pearls girl ("the water on stone, the water on concrete...")

― minna, Wednesday, 20 March 2002 01:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Bowie's 'All The Young Dudes' contains the line: 'Is this concrete all around, or is it in my head?'

I remember giggling stupidly with a Smash Hits journalist when we decided it would be better '...or is it in my hod?'
