Garbage Strike

[Verse]
Tell them please don't worry
Promise don't be sorry
We all know you're hurting
There's a smokestack burning again
Again

Come on, what's the hurry?
Make the night all blurry again
Again

[Bridge]
A blackout city wide
Made it easier to hide
But oh was it true

[Chorus]
That summer there was so much trash
A bloated wet dog epitaph again
( again, again, again, again )

[Verse]
All my friends are keeping track
Of when I pay them back
Feels like such a trap
'Cause they're never looking
To lend
Again

And a door I closed
Opened on its own again
Again

[Bridge]
A familiar street
Alien in record-breaking heat
It brought me to you

[Chorus]
A brownstone
Down on Dover Court
A garbage strike
A power cord again
The sights we saw made us afraid
Don't be saved
Leave heaven to bright blue jays

Now suddenly I'm back in time
I'm touching you across divides
Again
The sights we saw made me afraid
Don't be saved
Leave heaven to bright blue jays
