The crumbling streets where crickets feed
and the catwalk in the beat
The street's gone for any
they're grinding down their tea
Drop a can into the trash,
they're like vultures on dead meat
A far from a rockwell painting
The top goes past the standing,
it will never be the same
Like a graveyard for the living,
all the attics lay in the park
There are bars and surfboard qualls,
they're left wandering in the dark
I've shunned you far too long, oh,
I've shunned you far too long
It's time to grab a shovel,
for I've shunned you far too
There's a loot down at the corner pub,
it's a frenzy for the show
The trucks ran out of money,
so they got nowhere to go
If it's drugs or booze you're after,
or just looking for a time
The blue know you can have it all
I've walked these streets for
when nineteen I was blind
Oh the blue room where I cut my teeth
I'll take with all my life
will rule our teenage nights
I've shunned you far too long, oh
I've shunned you far too long
It's time to grab a shovel
for I've shunned you far too long
The visible -eyed minority
Two blind eyes and broken backs
Oh, the government's subside drug
has been a problem for too long
It's time to grab a shovel,
for I've shunned you far too long
I've shunned you far too long,
I've shunned you far too long
It's time to grab a shovel,
Keep bending yourself on the back,
think that you just might break your hand
Like a sniper on a rooftop
with crosshairs for any man
With the strength to move a needle
for allocation of our wealth
If you knew what's really good for us,
we'd weld it for yourself
I've shunned you far too long, oh
I've shunned you far too long
It's time to grab a shovel,
for I've shunned you far too long
I've shunned you far too long, oh
I've shunned you far too long
It's time to grab a shovel,
for I've shunned you far too long
