Lyrics:

And there's a fire on
The Junk Island where
They send their garbage
Is anybody listening?

After work we'll watch
The seagulls diving in
And out of
The lashing towers of flame

It twinkles like a pile
Of rotting jewels left
To bake in the sun
Is anybody listening?

And we're just like those condom wrappers
Used up, torn up
Thrown away

And we're just like yesterday's headlines
Drifting, floating
Towards the blaze

And if we rob the
Liquor store we could
Be in Tijuana
By the crack of dawn

And if we rob the
A Mayor's mansion
We pawn his modern art
And make a fortune

And if we rob the
A lonely widow
We steal her credit cards
And buy a cottage by the ocean

And we could swim in
To Junk Island
We'll burn up like the
Seagulls and the whiskey bottles

We're scrapped Valentines
We're tangerine rinds
We're crimes, crimes, crimes, crimes, crimes

We're scrapped Valentines
We're tangerine rinds
We're crimes, crimes, crimes, crimes, crimes

We're scrapped Valentines
We're tangerine rinds
We're crimes, crimes, crimes, crimes, crimes

We're scrapped Valentines
We're tangerine rinds
We're crimes, crimes, crimes, crimes, crimes

And the children
In the subway
Eating applecores
Is anybody listening?

They're breathing paint out of plastic bags
Their mumbled mouths say
'Is anybody listening?'
