Lyrics

Skeletons are moving underground
There are angels on the sly
God is busy turning a big wheel
'Round and 'round
(La la la la la)
(La la la la la la)
(La la la la la)
(La la la la la la)
Camels trudge across the desert sand
With their humps of holy water
Looking for a home in the needle's eye
See them fly
We don't cry in Boomtown
We go 'round (in Boomdown)
Live and die in Boomtown
'Round and 'round
(La la la la la)
(La la la la la la)
(La la la la la)
(La la la la la la)
High rises reflect a gleaming spire
It's another faithless Sunday
God's still busy turning the big wheel
'Round and 'round
But we won't cry in Boomtown
'Round and 'round (in Boomtown)
Live and die in Boomtown
Up and down
The fire fell here a long time ago
But the glory could not last
We still wear our veils to the dark afterglow
And pray for some shadow of the past
Or a star leading home
Above the Savings and Loan
Skeletons are moving underground
Ghosts and angels on the sly
God is busy turning the big wheel
'Round and 'round
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
(Na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na)
(Na na na na na)
(Na na na na na na)
We won't cry in Boomtown
Live and die in Boomtown
(Camels trudge across the desert sand)
It's another faithless Sunday
(Looking for a home in the needle's eye)
We'll get by
