a chorus of car alarms, shoes on the powerlines
|
young kids stealing cars and having switchblade fights
|
two little kids out selling lemonade in the sun
|
if you want them raised right you I guess you start them young
|
a homeless woman walking around in the snow
|
tired father at the bus stop hey bus driver take him home
|
boy down at the corner store copping some smokes
|
in a sea of perfect stripes it's hard to stay afloat
|
Well the urgency
|
oh man I feel it in the streets
|
all the people they're rhyming
|
they're stomping their feet
|
got the shake of the grass roots beat
|
there's a preacher down on 24th and farnam street
|
where the shattered glass is lying always glittering
|
and a prostitute with money spilling out her hands
|
both screaming about some high tide rising
|
a protester's sandwich board in the park
|
said you know the world is big and got a loose heart
|
you've only got what you've just polished clean
|
so you either start screaming or start singing
|
