CEMENT, CLAY AND GLASS

(SPENCER DRYDEN/DAVID NELSON)

I LIVE BY THE SIDE OF ROLLING OAKS ROAD
TRACT 25 JUST LIKE THE MAN SHOWED IT TO ME

NOTHIN' TO HIDE IT, NOTHIN' BESIDE IT
I REALLY CAN'T FIGHT IT, THE WHOLE PLACE IS BLIGHTED WITH
CEMENT, CLAY AND GLASS

TREES AWAY, CONTRACTOR'S PAY
NO DELAY, 10 UNITS TODAY
OF CEMENT, CLAY AND GLASS

TREES GREEN, NONE TO BE SEEN
YOU CUT DOWN THE HILLS BUT YOU PAY HIGHER BILLS
FOR YOUR CEMENT, CLAY AND GLASS
CEMENT, CLAY AND GLASS

I LIVE BY THE SIDE OF ROLLING OAKS ROAD
TRACT 25 JUST LIKE THE MAN SHOWED IT TO ME
THERE'S NOTHIN' TO HIDE IT, NOTHIN' BESIDE IT
I REALLY CAN'T FIGHT IT, THE WHOLE PLACE IS BLIGHTED WITH
CEMENT, CLAY AND GLASS
CEMENT, CLAY AND GLASS
