Lake Superior

On a stretch of sand, sweet northern breeze
Manitowoc put Avery on the beach
Your alibi will never do
When the whole town's got it out for you

Judge fox, the Great Lake stain
Got superior wanting to pull its own drain, ooh
Abandon the shore, where the poor get whipped
And the fat get fatter and the rich stay rich
Where the mice of men are chained and bruised
Where to stand accused is to admit you lose, hey

I wanna know people outdoor ain't gonna go out and act insane, insane
My baby girl, out in a world, all alone, burns a hole in my brain, my brain
I wanna know people outdoor ain't gonna go out and act insane, insane
My baby boy, pride and the joy, he's gonna go out and do the same, the same

In the hall of harm disgraceful sounds
Manitowoc knows how to gavel pound
They crack it right and shoot on site
Do you know where your baby is tonight?

The red tide is back again
Old Superior's new McCarthy clan

Back on the shore, where the poor get whipped
And the fat get fatter and the rich stay rich
Where the mice of men are chained and bruised
Where to stand accused is to admit you lose

I wanna know people outdoor ain't gonna go out and act insane, insane
My baby girl, out in a world, all alone, burns a hole in my brain, my brain
I wanna know people outdoor ain't gonna go out and act insane, insane
My baby boy, pride and the joy, he's gonna go out and do the same, the same

I wanna know people outdoor ain't gonna go out and act insane, insane
My baby girl, out in a world, all alone, burns a hole in my brain, my brain
I wanna know people outdoor ain't gonna go out and act insane, insane
My baby boy, pride and the joy, he's gonna go out and do the same, the same
