Down To The Wire |
| Wake up to the Biddle Street blues |
| Can’t shake the news |
| All the way to the big dome |
| They’re trying |
| The intrigues of the new royalty |
| And the believers |
| In the afterlife |
| Share the same gamblers pages |
| Cobblestone streets saw 3 sovereign flags |
| As they raised their glasses to conquest and nation |
| Still pawns playing out the legacy |
| Of long dead industry titans and haters of men |
| Feeling down to the wire |
| Feeling down to the wire |
| Plastic grocery bags fly from trees |
| Proud symbols of a cavalier progress |
| Memories and landscapes in triage |
| Disappearing averages, permanent changes |
| No jury will have a final say |
| Everyone knows the jury is guilty |
| Faced with no plan at all |
| Just to trick a smile out of the moment |
| Feeling down to the wire |
| Feeling down to the wire |
| Feeling down to the wire |
| Feeling down to the wire |
