Operation Ivy lyrics - Big City


Title: Big City
Artist: Operation Ivy
Album: Energy
Year: ????
Submitted by: Shany Grimard


Concrete and chaos rise up Spiderweb across the land Like a giant rash. Forests lie down below Foundations of buildings in a bed of ash. Some people here got it real good, 'cuz the glass towers bring prosperity. Other people starve in the street Because concrete knows no sympathy. Big city, it's a wishing well. Big city, it's a living hell. This town, it's fucking insane: How one will starve and another will gain. Like a giant mechanical brain, and the people are cells and the streets are veins. It thinks only of itself, A thousand limbs crawling it expands and grows, and still the concrete sits there, sits there stark grey and cold. (Chorus) And I think I wanna be a brick layer. So I can put another brick in the wall. It's sanitary, rational, happy and sane. Growing like a flower to surround us all. (Chorus)
