Lyrics:
- First thought is to run
- Before it hits the ground
- Make a safe distance
- Before it crashes down
- Ah, let’s have a look
- See a fiddle and cloud of grey
- Standing on the corner
- Watching the world blow away
- Well, mama never told me
- Watch out for flying mirrors? metal
- Papa never told me
- I’ll never find a peaceful place to settle
- I’m looking right down the road, I
- See you coming my way
- Standing on the corner
- Watching the world blow away
- Tell the world to throw it all in
- Why’d that boy explode
- How you supposed to take it
- All over the road
- Well I got a lot of patience
- But the meaning is clear
- I’m standing on the corner
- And they’re trying to blow me outta here
- Will somebody tell me
- What are you supposed to do
- Big proven ruble grabbing me
- Tryin’ – comin’ through
- Now he you find alone
- Maybe he’ll let you too
- Standing on the corner
- Watching the world flow on through
- I’m gonna write a letter
- Send it to that man
- He will have an answer
- Tell me what the hell have you got planned
- When you gonna take the stand
- Its been going on too long
- Standing on the corner
- Watchin' the world going by
- The shit's all made in China
- Cheap as it can be
- Well, my hard-earned work
- They’ll give it away for free
- My blood starts to boil
- Am I losing my fire
- Standing on the corner
- Watching the world run wild
- Sometimes I feel I
- Can make a difference at all
- Well I’m going down to Joe’s
- And I’m throwing darts at the wall
- I’d have me a drink
- Watch the game and forest fell
- Standing on the corner
- Watching the world go to hell
- Two by two, all of gods creatures on the burning ark
- Two by two, watching our eyes go dark
- Won’t somebody tell me, how are you supposed to feel
- Standing on the corner
- Watching the world disappear
- Well I gotta dog a bridge
- Just to make ends meet
- Fuckin price of oil
- Fuckin price of heat
- I went down to a church
- They don’t give a damn as far as I can see
- Standing on the corner
- Watching the world killing me
- But I’m gonna go on home
- Beat the crowd out
- Find a place with water
- Before there’s none left
- I saw 'Apocalypse Now'
- That was nothing compared to this
- Standing on the corner
- Takin’ a piss
- Won’t somebody tell me
- How’d it get so bad
- What wrong with those people
- How’d they get so mad
- Now I don’t know the answer
- But the feeling is clear
- I’m standing on the corner
- ‘Till the end is near
