I've seen my fair share of ghosts But what scares me the most is seeing what's coming Growing older and giving up And I won t believe it, I won't believe it Sit-down strikes and gutters tonight There's nothing left in this town We've all been sold, it's not rock and roll Don't beat us when we're down It's okay You didn't even listen in the first place Welcome back riders, it's another rat race All of your words are safe until the show And soon, the world's gonna know An empty promise, so here's a toast From your empty office, no lawyer will take it This case is as good as closed And I can't believe it, I can't believe it Away for years, and now you're here So tell them where you ve been Wait in line, enjoy the ride It's coming back again It's okay You didn't even listen in the first place Welcome back riders, it's another rat race All of your words are safe until the show And soon, the world's gonna know The world's gonna know These streets are the same to me These songs won't mean anything without a place to call our home These streets are the same to me These songs won't mean anything without a place to call our home A place to call our home A place to call our own I'm staying tonight Yeah
