We`ll I`m standing by a river but the water doesn`t flow
It boils with every poison you can think of.
Then I`m underneath the streetlights
But the light of joy I know
Scared beyond belief way down in the shadows.
And the perverted fear of violence chokes a smile on every face
And common sense is ringing out the bells.
This ain`t no technological breakdown
Oh no, this is the road to hell.
And all the roads jam up with credit
And there`s nothing you can do
It`s all just bits of paper flying away from you.
Look out world
Take a good look what comes down here
You must learn these lesson fast and learn it well.
This ain`t no upwardly mobile freeway
Oh no, this is the road
This is the road
This is the road to hell
