lyrics

I'm being kicked around like a rubber mouth in the alley
Lord only knows for what nefarious purpose I came to be here
When I started out all pink and splendid
Now I'm all black and abused and abandoned
Soon I'll be gone as senselessly as I arrived

I'm being jacked (JACKED)
Every day
By those goddam hammers at eight-
o-one AM
Monday through friday and I'm trying
to grind a little life
'tween the paychecks and the
bills

I'm being excavated like that greenspace outside my balcony
I've been dug up and stuck like the land in court for years
Fighting for permits
Why don't you just put back the dirt
replant those trees
stop putting up condos on every scrap of grass that you see
soon your towers will be empty of me
and then I'll be free...

I'm being jacked (JACKED)
Every day
By those goddam hammers at eight-
o-one AM
Monday through friday and I'm trying
to grind a little life
'tween the paychecks and the
bills

Whatever I build is promptly torn down
so often I'm deaf from the sound
The promise of history to solve our mystery
I can't handle the density anymore....

(cacophonous sounds)

I'm being jacked (JACKED)
Every day
By those goddam hammers at eight-
o-one AM
Monday through friday and I'm trying
to grind a little life
'tween the paychecks and the
JACKED
