Emerald Street

Pregnant teens on the Barton street bus[00:00:20]

Homeless people living off crust[00:00:22]

And there's a beat up town car it's starting to rust[00:00:24]

Hard soles are kicking up dust[00:00:27]

Half a million people living in the corpse of the brown brick 50's[00:00:30]

To the north all the small town outcasts are now big city bourgeoisie[00:00:35]

All the boys in the halfway houses[00:00:40]

Wave to the girls of Emerald Street[00:00:42]

Our calloused fingers blood red on the brick but we hold on[00:00:45]

Hold on[00:00:51]

We'll never falter though they want us to slip we hold on[00:00:54]

Hold on[00:01:02]

The desperate downtown stealing bikes[00:01:15]

Drunks in the village are picking fights[00:01:17]

So police like the streets to read them their rights[00:01:19]

No controlling hot summer nights[00:01:22]

The sun goes down on the edge of town at the end of everyday[00:01:24]

We sit and watch the stacks on fire to the east across the bay[00:01:29]

All the boys in the halfway houses[00:01:34]

Wave to the girls of Emerald Street[00:01:37]

Our calloused fingers blood red on the brick but we hold on[00:01:39]

Hold on[00:01:45]

We'll never falter though they want us to slip we hold on[00:01:49]

Hold on[00:01:56]

There's something in the church belfry[00:02:09]

On the corner of Victoria and king[00:02:11]

And it screams out into the night[00:02:19]

It sings this city's plight[00:02:24]

All the boys in the halfway houses[00:02:29]

Wave to the girls of Emerald Street[00:02:31]

Hold on hold on[00:02:33]

Our calloused fingers blood red on the brick but we hold on[00:02:44]

Hold on[00:02:51]

We'll never falter though they want us to slip we hold on[00:02:54]

Hold on[00:03:01]
