lyrics

Now it’s the city’s turn to watch the city burn. Television dinner and nine to five concerns. Hello? Is this thing on? Are we queuing for dreams or bygones? For point road’s lambs and point road’s cons: prescription pills and siren songs. Some days, we handle it. Others, we hollow out window panes. All signs read “the wrong way.” I guess we’re in limbo again.

Administration, excuses extraordinaire! Minimum wage and tax and fear. A thousand traffic lights, repetition certified. So long, signed “a working class suicide.”

And at corruption’s height, the patriots catch alight. This place is paradise if the pigment’s right. Protest lives on in dance and song, it’s written onto the face of our icons. World, can’t you see? We get along – and change the bills that say we’re wrong. Some days, we handle it. Others, we hollow out window panes. All signs read “the wrong way.” I guess we’re in limbo again.

Administration, excuses extraordinaire! Minimum wage and tax and fear. A thousand traffic lights, repetition certified. So long, signed “a working class suicide.”
