Street Sweeper

Street sweeper Don't bother coming yonder down the road Legend keeper The books got something they can no longer hold Wise teacher There's no one in these parts to take it in Kind people Some things can't be fixed with a smile How come these wheels are turning But there is no change? How come these years are burning But no wiser we gain? All these things we 'ought to be learning Are a source of shame Might as well turn to stone High diver There's something 'bout the color of our water Plane flyer Watch out for the heaviness of the air Filthy liars Gather 'round we'll find a place for you in town square Bus driver The next stop is many miles away from here How come these wheels are turning But there is no change? How come these years are burning But no wiser we gain? All these things we 'ought to be learning Are a source of shame Might as well turn to stone Fast away the pages of this book Gone away sunshine has all been took Take away a map a chance to look At the way We're living half the lives of what we should How come these wheels are turning But there is no change? How come these years are burning But no wiser we gain? All these things we 'ought to be learning Are a source of shame Might as well turn to Might as well turn to Might as well turn to Stone
