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 its a wishing well Big city its a living hell This town its 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 as it expands and grows And still the concrete sits there Sits there stark grey and cold And I think I wanna be a brick layer So I can put another brick in the wall Its sanitary rational happy and sane Growing like a flower to surround us all
