Should come snow
But we got rain and it's leaking in
I think of Paris
How that ugly tower stands 3 years of wind

Now don't it seem like we're living in a slowdown town
I feel like we're living in a slowdown town
And on and on it goes
On and on it goes
Billions of people be happy living like the way we do
With the world in our hands
Believing that we're small and true

But sometimes I feel like we're living in a slowdown town
Yes I feel like we're living in a slowdown town
And on and on it goes
I'll be here
And the wind and the rain will be
Tearing down the building over me
I'll be here
In my tower of mistrust
I built this myself with nails that don't rust
Don't you feel like we're living in a slowdown town
Oh honey, I feel like we're living in a slowdown town
So people, come on, let's just blow it and get out of this damn town
Or on and on it goes
Or on and on it goes
