E     A       E         A                E     A       E        A
A footbridge calls out, dull metal moans as we clamber over
E     A    E          A            E            A              E     A
Paint is repelled and bronze grips hard, I can't touch such an ugly surface
E   A           E     A      E             A          E         A
Two hundred and fifty miles away, you need money to spread your wings
E    A         E      A       E        A           E           A
Each town must bear a name, A lasting testament to organization

Green metal grows, towers toppling, They tore it down before I took my picture
E  A  E      A            E        A        E             A
A19, I can't settle down, The same attitude engulfs this country
E  A    E     A        E       A          E  A
My only aspirations were those held on an A4 printout
E         A             E     A
But those words weren't in my repertoire
E         A          E   A
You can't cling to a reputation
