Lyrics

[Intro]

Yeah

Uh, uh-uh-uh-uh, yeah

[Verse 1]

There was a building there and it was brutalist

And it was beautiful, it was my favorite

But it's not there no more, because they tore it down

They really ruined it

My dad's an architect, he used to show me it

When he would drive me to the psychiatry

Again and again

Didn't come back a man

I guess I ruined it

Ah, ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ah, ah

[Verse 2]

Sometimes I lay awake when everyone's asleep

And I can see the arches over me

There was building there and it was brutalist

And it was beautiful

Yeah, yeah, yeah, it was standing on the right side of the street

They cut my hair at the psychiatry

But it was really there, it meant so much to me

But now they ruined it

[Chorus]

Yeah, but now they ruined it

Yeah, yeah, but now they ruined it

Yeah, yeah, they really ruined it

Yeah, yeah, they really ruined it

[Bridge]

Yeah, they took a knife to it

They took a bomb to it

They bulldozered it

They didn't give a shit

It really breaks my heart what they did to it

They really ruined it

[Chorus]

Yeah, yeah, they really ruined it

Yeah, yeah, they took a knife to it

Yeah, yeah, they took a bomb to it

Yeah, yeah, they bulldozered it

Yeah, yeah, yeah, they took a knife to it

Uh-huh, they took a bomb to it

Yeah, uh, they bulldozered it

Yeah, yeah, they really ruined it

[Verse 3]

There was building there and it was brutalist

And it was beautiful, my favorite

I wanna take you there, I wanna take you there

But they ruined it

I wanna take you there, I wanna take you there

I wanna take you there

But they tore it down

It's not there no more, they really ruined it
