Standard (EADGBE)

Chorus

And I'm waiting for the garbage man to take you away

And I'm searching for my playground so I can go and play

So they built a big smoke stack

They built a railroad track, they paved the dirt roads black

And they did it behind your back

And now you pay their tax, hoping something cracks

And I'm waiting for the garbage man to take you away

And I'm searching for my playground so I can go and play

Break

From out of the dust came corrosion and rust

That made you look so cheap

There's nothing to have here and nothing to hold here

And nothing that you can keep

Now understand this is no man's land

 And it's all that's left that's free

Where the kings of nothing rule, my friend

 And you can't make me leave

There's a billboard in the sky

Reflecting water in your eyes

This big city, this ghost town

Will come crumbling to the ground

And I'm waiting for the hurricane to blow you away

And I'm searching for my twister to twist you into shape

Now my speech is said and done

The circus came, I've had my fun

And the wasteland has been won

And the building has begun

And I'm waiting for the earthquake to shake you down

And I see my mother nature coming to slap you around

Break
