Wringing all the fun we can from weekends wet with bleeding hands
Aching back and breaking legs, we’ve drained our bottles to the dregs
Now we all shout happily, singing drunken melodies
Waiting for the dawn to take us back to our retreats
The coffee knocks me all around
The working day has got me down
But beer and whiskey drown
And cigarettes just slow me down
So young and arrogant and proud, didn’t believe in any god
Till I stepped outside one day and saw the devil and shook him by the claw
He was standing out on fourth and main
with others wasting time and brains
I would’ve liked to stay and chat but my hometown streets they called me back
BRIDGE!
Construction never ends
You get by just keep on moving
Dragged back and forth all over town
I met a man who came up last, he saw the future and the past
In the flames of the incinerator blast to which he fed the city streets
He turned to me "Detroit or Bust, the future’s filled with ash and dust unless we do all that we must, an option's not retreat".
