lyrics

Got in line for soup this evening
Left my car on the side of the road
No food in the kitchen no gas in the tank
No job to wake up for tomorrow
They say there’s lines to jump out the window
They’re selling plots out on the east river
You can pay all the money you ever made
But she takes more than you can give her

I’m in the sharpest part of Manhattan
Down where Wall Street just dead ends
But it’s not sharp enough to draw any blood
Or start payin’ for any sins
We got Will Rogers on the radio
And we’re listenin’ for some kind of hope
I walked outside and I sat on the steps
I felt the wind through a tear in my coat

They say it gets worse before it gets better
But I’m not waitin’ round for any news
I take the stairs back up to my old office
Got the economy stupid blues
I walk over and I open the window
I guess I’m the last in line
I turn up the radio loud as it’ll go
Speakers blown but his voice sounds fine
