As cancerous as the city grows
(When will it blow up? – No one knows)
Our greed to feed our civil spleen
Will force its black sky to careen
It’s coming down, it’s cracking up
It’s coping with our madness
It’s come alive to live our sins
It breeds our scorn and malice
It’s coming down, it’s cracking up
It pays our share with vengeance
There’s no way back, we won’t be saved
By our false repentance
As synchronized as time goes by
(Before it’s time to wonder why)
We put our feet on asphalt lanes
In search of open prairie plains
It’s coming down, it’s cracking up...
Don’t let your silly cravings go to waste
Spread them out and fuel our municipal taste
So blissful is our ignorance
(Our self-inflicted circumstance)
That we deny the obvious
When hope is gone, all love is lust
