No Man's Land
I've seen those big machines
Come rolling through the quiet pines
Blue suits and bankers
With their Volvos and their valentines
Give us this day
Our daily discount outlet merchandise
Raise up a multiplex and
We will make a sacrifice
Now we're gonna get the big business
Now we're gonna get the real thing
Everybody's all excited about it
Who remembers when it all began
Out here in no man's land
Before they passed the master plan
Out here in no man's land
Low supply and high demand
Here in no man's land
(Out here in no man's land)
There ain't much work out here
In our consumer power base
No major industry, just miles and miles
Of Parking space
This morning's paper says
Our neighbor's in a cocaine bust
Lots more to read about Lolita and suburban lust
Now we're gonna get the whole story
Now we're gonna be in prime time
Everybody's excited about it
Who remembers when it all began
Out here in no man's land
We've just begun to understand
Out here in no man's land
Low supply and high demand
Here in no man's land
(Out here in no man's land)
I see these children with their boredom
And their vacant stares
Hod help us all if we're to blame
For their unanswered prayers
They roll the sidewalks up at night
This place goes underground
Thanks to the condo kings
There's cable now in Zombietown
Now we're gonna get the closed circuit
Now we're gonna get the top 40
Now we're gonna get the sports franchise
Now we're gonna get the major attractions
Who remembers when it all began
Out here in no man's land
Before the whole world was in our hands
Out here in no man's land
Before the banners and the marching bands
Out here in no man's land
Low supply and high demand
Here in no man's land
(Here in no man's land)
Here in no man's land
(Out here in no man's land)
Here in no man's land
Here in no man's land
Here in no man's land
Come rolling through the quiet pines
Blue suits and bankers
With their Volvos and their valentines
Give us this day
Our daily discount outlet merchandise
Raise up a multiplex and
We will make a sacrifice
Now we're gonna get the big business
Now we're gonna get the real thing
Everybody's all excited about it
Who remembers when it all began
Out here in no man's land
Before they passed the master plan
Out here in no man's land
Low supply and high demand
Here in no man's land
(Out here in no man's land)
There ain't much work out here

No major industry, just miles and miles

Here in no man's land
(Out here in no man's land)
Here in no man's land
Here in no man's land
Here in no man's land
