    City Kids 1989

    City Kids 1989 is a 1989 Hong Kong action drama film directed by Poon Man-kit and starring Andy Lau and Max Mok. The film shares the same Chinese title and a similar plot to the 1969 film The Orphan which stars Bruce Lee.

    Plot

    Sas and Chow Cho-sam are sworn brothers who grew up in a triad gang and lacked family warmth and proper education. Sam falls in love with May and they have shotgun marriage. In order to pay for their marriage, Sas gets involved in a robbery where Sam injures three policemen and the two are imprisoned for six years. After they were released, May is already someone's fiance but Sam is still in love with her but since punks and love have no fate, they can only be friends. Sas and Sam borrow money from a loan shark for their private business. However, their business fails and debt collector Fu forces them to kidnap to pay off their debts. They are ordered to kidnap tutoring student Ka-po, daughter of a wealthy man. Sas was dissatisfied with Fu's decision to murder the girl after collecting ransom and personally hands Ka-po back to May which angers Fu and he hires people to chop Sas. After Sas dies from his injuries, the sadden and angered Sam seeks vengeance on Fu. After some fighting when Sam was about to kill Fu, his long lost father, Inspector Chow Wing, persuades him to reform and not to repeat the same mistakes. Wing hands Fu to the law and helps Sam turn over a new leaf.

    City Kids

    Nobody knows, I know nobody cares
    What goes on in here
    We have this door, nobody gets in
    Until I'm really sure
    Don't creep up behind me
    You know where to find me, I'm always around
    Turns out if you need us
    Before you lead us astray
    Don't care who we meet
    We're orphans here on Easy Street and we feel real mean
    Cruising on speed
    We've got more than we'll ever need, ain't life sweet?
    We won't turn your pay down
    City kids don't lay down, we don't call so cheap
    Better get some more of that
    City kids, we don't give that to you, oh no
    Bombs go off the night
    Searing heat, blinding light, you like it fine
    Park the car and run
    Dance all night, it was for fun, we're nasty
    Why do we do it?
    No one can get through it
    We know where to run
    You hear what we're saying
    Time that you were praying
    'Cos city kids, time won't be long
