THE COLOURS IN CITIES 
GET TENSER WHEN THE DARK CREEPS IN 
NIGHT HOLDS OUT LONG FINGERS 
DARK POLISHED, DEEP FINGERPRINTS 

IF I COULD SAY NO, SAY NO 
TO THE GARBAGE MAN 
IF I COULD SAY NO, SAY NO
IT'S TRASH IN A CAN, TRASH IN A CAN 

THERE'S VISION IN SMALL THINGS 
I KNOW IT BUT MY LOOK IS TOO WIDE 
I LOOK AT MY FINGERS 
WHITE KNUCKLES THAT DON'T SEEM TO BE MINE 

IF I COULD SAY NO, SAY NO 
TO THE GARBAGE MAN 
IF I COULD SAY NO, SAY NO 
IT'S TRASH IN A CAN, TRASH IN A CAN
IF I COULD LET IT GO, LET IT GO 
NEED NO GARBAGE MAN 
IF I COULD SAY NO, SAY NO 
IT'S TRASH IN A CAN 
TRASH IN A CAN 
I'LL TRY 'TILL I CAN
TRY 'TILL I CAN
