Service And Repair Lyrics - Calexico

On the outskirts of expansion, looking out from Blueprint peak 

The flow is flooding of urban settlers panning through rivers running dry. 

Numbers roll on in, smiling a lottery grin, a sadness blurs the eye... 

It's just a matter of time in they're moving on 

It's just a matter of time before they're moving on 

Doesn't take much time for plans to go wrong 

and chase another ghost of a chance. 

In the shadow of chain-store ghost towns 

where no one walks the streets at night, 

the silent nation hooked on medication, 

stares into a blue flickering light. 

the young drift off alone 

and the old are whisked away 

and prospects keep looking up, 

but the line is getting long on the lost highway, 

the line's getting longer on the lost highway 

Doesn't take much time for plans to go astray 

and chase another ghost of a chance

They say deep down inside, lie properties of a healing 

kind, 

If so it'd better come around soon 

and do a little bit of service and repair 

do a little bit of service and repair 

do a little more service and repair 

Doesn't take much time for plans to change 

and offer up another chance 

for a little bit more service and repair 

do a little bit more service and repair 

Doesn't take much time for plans to change 

and offer up another chance 

at sewing the dream better suited for both soul and 

soil.
