The Wrecking Ball Lyrics - Spirit Of The West

Over the sidewalk under the archway 

Through the door again 

Planting charges seed of destruction 

Time is caving in 

Here we are at mile zero 

This is St. John's Newfoundland 

But you can hear the strains of Nero 

Serenade the demolition man 

The sun is rising 

Bricks are falling 

Nothing stands too long to tall 

For the swing of the wrecking ball

Petition's failed the coffin's nailed 

We protest, money talks 

What's here today will be gone today 

Holding hands won't stop the clock 

They'll be coming in the morning 

To tear a piece out of the sky 

Try and build another Babel 

Who can build the highest high 

The sun is rising 

Bricks are falling 

Nothing stands too long to tall 

For the swing of the... 

Dance macabre at the wrecking ball 

Steel toe shuffle through an empty hall 

Hard hat dancers take the floor 

Then the ceiling and the corridor 

The jackhammers beat out eight to the bar 

The last dance will be a slamdance

Ring around the Dev hotel 

The crowd gathered 'round 

A plunger sinks a cheer goes up 

And it all falls down 

In a shower of brick and mortar 

Raining down in dirty sheets 

When the dust has come to settle 

There'll be one less shadow on the street 

The sun is rising 

Bricks are falling 

Nothing stands too long to tall 

For the swing of the wrecking ball 

hmmm the wrecking ball
