St. Paul & The Broken Bones - City Federal Building Lyrics

St. Paul & The Broken Bones Lyrics

"City Federal Building"

Take the elevator to the top floor
See the sprawling city, see what God has made us for
Crumbling skyscrapers
Swirl around like dead leaves just to make it through the fall

Don't let them see you cry, it just makes them glad
Don't let them see you smile, it just makes them mad
Don't let them take your Holy Ghost
Don't let them take it

Take the combination with a pistol in your hand
Find a bank in Birmingham let them know you got a plan
Crumbling skyscrapers
Crumbling skyscrapers
To be an entertainer you got to know when to take your shot

Don't let them see you cry, it just makes them glad
Don't let them see you smile, it just makes them mad
Don't let them take your Holy Ghost
Don't let 'em take it

Crumbling skyscrapers
Crumbling skyscrapers
Crumbling skyscrapers
Crumbling skyscrapers
Crumbling skyscrapers
Crumbling skyscrapers
