The throne of mankind is perched on a cliff
The carbonic rock and the acid base shift
Acts like a buffer as rain water drips
Limestone and moss where I wait in the mist
Look up at blue Silurian Mountains
Mankind’s greed quarried rock from earth
As quarrelling kings sought to fill their purse
Blessed as they were to live beside the mine
Turned to Calcium and cementite
With hardened hearts let those demons out
As rock formations started to melt
Royalty would not leave his keep
Leave Mother Earth to kill them as they sleep
Look up at the blue Silurian Mountains

I've got a secret I'd like to tell
I guess I'll send it in the mail.
My old pal sees me out here getting screwed
I swear I got no attitude
When I'm out walking I'm out on bail
and when I'm home I'm back in jail.
I talk with strangers and friends the same
Along the way I hear your name.
Oh, I come back down again.
You know well I've got to make amends.
This thing was no trainwreck. It's a shame.
I let go no raincheck, played the game.
I get drunk on weekends, how you feel?
I live life with regrets and keep it real.

I don’t wanna go to school
I just want to play guitar
I hope you don't think I'm a fool
I just think it’ll get me more far than working hard
Tear down a wall
Tear down a wall
Because you weren't always this bald
I don't wanna go to work
I just wanna lay in bed
Hope you don't think I'm a jerk
I’m not trying to get ahead
Tear down a wall
Tear down a wall
Because you weren't always this bald
Tear down a wall

Better dedicate a dozen or so
of them gophers in the ground.
You'll find a family of five
getting highway downtown.
It's a hyphy hayride
with John Deere and the troops.
I'd rather have a snake pit, boy,
than bulldoze a chicken coop.
Wind up the cable and fasten it to the beat
Skinny dip river, salmon spawn downstream.
Keep walking.
I'm on a cloud.
My back is broken and my dogs get loud.
Cut the grass. You got a half gallon of sprouts.
Get tossed into a lunch sack with the prize fighter bouts
Tip of the pen sits a uniform in hat
Well perched abreast to that sits a rifle and a bat
Tip off the guard if you're looking to get caught
Well, at least its air conditioned in my cell beneath the parking lot
Keep Walking
High fists at noon
Somebody's making noise down in the collagen room
Raise the stakes
Barbeques out in back,
and my wife's in the kid's room sipping on her cognac.
Baby's in the cradle, he's not making a fuss.
Where a kid can really be a kid, take you on back to Toys 'R' Us.
Keep walking.
I'm on a cloud
My shoes are soaking and my thoughts get loud.
