Factory - Lyrics by Walt Mink


Lyrics
In the evening I close my eyes and slip away
In the morning I wake and greet a brand new day
All around us the oldest have the faraway eyes
In the old eyes my future seems to wither and die, wither and die
All that we can do, Baby, today
All that we can do, Baby, today
Is touch down in every possible way
Waiting for the breakdown
Let's drive to the factory
That thrived when plastic was a fad
We'll throw rocks at the seagulls
And sit along the broken riverside
Riverside
All that we can do, Baby, today
Oh, all that we can do, Baby, today
Is touch down in every possible way
Waiting for the breakdown
All that we can do, baby, today
All that we can do, Baby, today
Oh, is touch down in every possible way
Waiting for the breakdown
There's plague in my hometown
And I wish my dreams would leave me alone
For God's sake just wait till sundown
To turn my neighbors into stone
All around us the oldest have the faraway eyes
You'll send in their oldest
My future seems to wither and die, wither and die
All that we can do, Baby, today (x21)
Oh, is touch down in every possible way
Waiting for the breakdown
