Spirit of the West - The Wrecking Ball lyrics
ove the sidewalk under the archway through the door again planting charges seed of destruction time is caving in here we are at mile zero this is St. John's NFLD but you can hear the strains of Nero serenade the demolition man the sun is rising bricks are falling nothing stands too long too tall for the swing of the wrecking ball the petition failed the coffin's nailed we protest but money talks what's here today will be gone today holding hands won't stop the clock they'll be coming in teh morning to tear a piece out of the sky try and build another Babel who can reach the highest high the sun is rising bricks are falling nothing stands too long too tall for the swing of the wrecking ball dance macabre at the wrecking ball steel toe shuffle through an empty hall the hard hat dancers take th floor then the ceiling and the corridor the jackhammers beat out eight to the bar the last dance will be a slam dance ring around the Dev hotel a crowd is gathering round the plunger sinks a cheer goes up and it all falls down in a shower of brick and mortar raining down in dirty sheets when the dust has come to settle ther'll be one less shadow on the street the sun is rising bricks are falling nothing stands too long too tall for the swing of the wrecking ball |
