I the Mighty - Escalators lyrics
[I the Mighty - Escalators lyrics]
Floating down escalators
Your eyes are green, your heart is black
You've done some ugly things
Now it's too late to take them back
Just money mongers here
Who never filled their karma cups
Now death has brought them here
And this room in hell is filling up
From town to town he came
To build his wealth, he bought them out
Just build the biggest one
Then all the smaller ones come down
We live the golden age 1909, 1909
Much money to be made monopolize, monopolize
Woah oh oh, you're so
Deserving of the place you're in
Escalating down in rows
Woah oh oh, your soul
Was conscious of the path you chose
Here's proof that somebody knows
On a wooden stage, he speaks
Eloquently about his feast
To sway the simple folk
But in the middle of his speech
A none position screams "A man of
One! A man of one!"
His threat was well received and so
He hung and so he hung
And now it's all verse one
It's all verse one (Hey, hey hey hey)
Woah oh oh, you're so
Deserving of the place you're in
Escalating down in rows
Woah oh oh, your soul
Was conscious of the path you chose
Here's proof that somebody knows
And you can call, oh, brother call
Yes, you can call, oh, brother call
No one can hear you, not at all
But, you can call, oh, brother call
And you can call, oh, brother call
(Floating down escalators)
(Your eyes are green, your heart is black)
Yes, you can call, oh, brother call
(You've done some ugly things)
(Now it's too late to take them back)
No one can hear you, not at all
(Just money mongers here)
(Who never filled their karma cups)
But, you can call, oh, brother call
(Now death has brought them here)
(And this room in hell is filling up)
We give you death by forty-five
It's what we call your last time out
Your last time out by forty-five
It's what we call your last time out
Woah oh oh, you're so
Deserving of the place you're in
Escalating down in rows
Woah oh oh, your soul
Was conscious of the path you chose
Here's proof that somebody knows
We give you death by forty-five
It's what we call your last time out
Your last time out
By forty-five, it's what we call
Your last time out, your last time out
Your eyes are green, your heart is black
You've done some ugly things
Now it's too late to take them back
Just money mongers here
Who never filled their karma cups
Now death has brought them here
And this room in hell is filling up
From town to town he came
To build his wealth, he bought them out
Just build the biggest one
Then all the smaller ones come down
We live the golden age 1909, 1909
Much money to be made monopolize, monopolize
Woah oh oh, you're so
Deserving of the place you're in
Escalating down in rows
Woah oh oh, your soul
Was conscious of the path you chose
Here's proof that somebody knows
On a wooden stage, he speaks
Eloquently about his feast
To sway the simple folk
But in the middle of his speech
A none position screams "A man of

His threat was well received and so
He hung and so he hung
And now it's all verse one
It's all verse one (Hey, hey hey hey)
Woah oh oh, you're so
Deserving of the place you're in
Escalating down in rows
Woah oh oh, your soul

Here's proof that somebody knows
And you can call, oh, brother call
Yes, you can call, oh, brother call
No one can hear you, not at all

Your last time out
By forty-five, it's what we call
Your last time out, your last time out
