SKY HIGH

Sky high they built the landscape
So they can look down- it's the best way
To get the buzz from being so first rate
In the game of making it pay

Sky high capital investment
In a building keeping it vacant
While the homeless down on the pavement
Used to live here getting in the way

Sky high looking at dreams through
Windows/screens at other people' s nightmares
Short term memory lane closed down
For the pain relief of looking elsewhere

Sky high figures on lists get bigger
The closer you get to the pyramid floor
It's critical mass and poverty's the trigger
People want to keep what they had before

And the bloke who used to live next door
Has just signed up to the new class war
He's heard too much and he's on the streets
Saying 'This no longer has any meaning'

Sky high out of his mind on
What he could find on
Minimum waging war on boredom
What did he find
But similar minds
Set ready to go when called on
The off-chance of a mass connection
So much going in the same direction

Is it sky high dreaming to be free from living
In a rat-race killing off human kindness?
Now it's putting our heads together and
Changing the cultural corporate mindset
Sky high bringing it down to earth
Or winging it bringing it to the ground
Sky high higher they get the further they fall
We'll see you on the way back down
