Sand Castles
Sand castles
Like New York
And Los Angeles
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Sand castles,
Like Boston
And New Orleans
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Ohhohhohhh
Look at all these human beings
Running wide open
Stacked up on top one another
and focused on where they're going
We got yellow cab grid lock
And them structures that scrape the sky
Names of the wealthy families
All plastered on the side
Gargoyles
And angels disturbing symbolism
It's a money making culture clashin'
Smell of urban livin'
Fire trucks and ambulances
Creep through the pollution
Whoever needs them,
They don't stand a chance cause these folks ain't moving
Sand castles -
Like New York and Los Angeles
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Sand castles,
Like Boston and New Orleans
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Ohhohhohhh
It's like the quest to see who can get the biggest
Headstone when they're through
It's stressful,
Sad and beautiful
And like a corner office view
From The top of the tallest,
You can see how far the fall is
To the noisy streets below
Where the peasants like myself are walking
As I was looking up at the modern marvels,
These trophies to man's existence
Some wisdom split the confusion
And I knew I better listen
And I heard an old man sing a song
And he started off with a laugh
He said,
Let me tell you something son
That's all some folks have
Sand castles
- like New York and Los Angeles
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Sand castles
like Boston and New Orleans
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Ohhohhohhh
Castles
Castles
Castles
Castles ohhhh
Sand castles
- like New York And Los Angeles
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Sand castles,
Like Boston and New Orleans
Sand castles
sand castles
Ohhohhohhh
Like New York
And Los Angeles
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Sand castles,
Like Boston
And New Orleans
Sand castles,
Sand castles
Ohhohhohhh
