I'm Living Up With A Ghost In A Steel High Rise

Guess She Made The News

When The First Couple Tenants Passed Right Through

She Turned The Locks On The Door The Day That I Stepped In

And I Said Listen Here Baby You Just Can't Win

Cause I've Come In Off The Street

And It's A Hell Of A World Out There

And I Think That's Got You Beat

Every Hour On The Hour She Breaks The Glass

And Then Slams The Door

But It's A Hard To Hear It In This City On The Thirteenth Floor

Must Be A Hell Of A Job When Your Trying To Terrify

With An Old Bag Of Tricks Rattling The Pipes Bone Dry

Cause There's A Factory Up The Street

You Can't Drink The Water Anyway

And I Think That's Got You Beat

I'm Catching The Moon Through The Street Light Glare

Tracing The Sky Line Back To Where

A Walk Through The Walls In The Middle Of The Night

Could Look So Wrong In A World So Right

There's An Old Black And White In The New Town Hall

Of The First Paved Road I Wonder If That's You

By The A Frame Where The High Rise Goes

You Must Have Taken This City On Like Rolling Thunder

Back In The Day The Simple Days Of Wonder

Now It's A Six Lane Street And It's A Hell Of A World Out There

And I Think That's Got You Beat
