"The Steak Place" lyrics

"The Steak Place"

Head down
Head down
Head, head, head down

Fool of the commonwealth drove down there
Down turnpike
Desperate for food desperate for respite

The steak place
The steak place

Cheap carpet lines the way
Aluminium tack door handles
Candelabra lions head
Via butchers display too

The steak place
The steak place

Via a carcass row
Things are brought forward and eaten
I see the corners filled with hitmen
To young lawyers they are whispering, in

The steak place
The steak place

I wanna stay here
I don't wanna go anywhere
I could remain here

Head down
Head down
Head down
Head, head, head down
The steak place
The steak place

I'd stop the automation
I'd sit behind dusty lace
I have a word with hitmen
I give off a beatific face

The steak place
The steak place
From New York City run screaming
Into New England states
Combined a man not should have to do this
A man should not use his fist in

The steak place
The steak place

I wanna stay here
I don't wanna go anywhere
I shall remain here
