Service And Repair Songtext / Lyric

On the outskirts of expansion
looking out from blue prints 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 before they`re moving on (2x)
doesn`'t take much time for plans to go wrong
and chase another ghost of a chance

In the shadows of chain store ghost towns
where no one walks the streets at night
the silent nation hooked o n medication
stares into the a blue flickering light

The young drift off alone
and the old are whisked away
and prospects keep looking up
but the lines getting long on the lost highway (2x)
doesn`t take much time for plans to go astray
and chase another ghost of chance

They say deep down inside
lie properties of a healing kind
if so it'd better come 'round soon
and do a little bit of service and repair (3x)
doesn't take much time for plans to change
and offer up another chance
for a little bit more service and repair (2x)
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.
