City Buildings

The buildings in the city Love to talk about All the hustle that's within And bustle that's without Downtown people always Scurrying here and there As the buildings windows Take on a reflective stare Everyone around them Always on the go Not knowing where they're going But staying with the flow Not at all the least bit concerned With other peoples lives As they take another rung On the corporate ladder of lies If the buildings could they would Try and help them out They feel they're partially to blame Since the city came about When men all got together To give progress a name Not knowing this same progress Would be their ball and chain If the buildings only had Warned some time ago That most of what man attains Leads to his downfall
