See the morning, smell the tar
Take a look at where you are
Used to sit but here you stand, according to the plan, take a look at where you stand
Tap the hard hat, pave the path
Get it level, make it flat
Used to walk but now you run to greet the rising sun, take a look at what you've done
It's the 9 o'clock haze, out the door and on your way
Comin' home and hearin' "How was your day?"
Fine, overall, it was okay but you know there's more to say
Cuz all in good time, any color you'd like
Build one-by-one 'til your tower scrapes the sky
And under new lights all hidden in plain sight
Maybe you could take the time to see
The world set in stone you take for granted
Etch your sketches in the sand
Here you'll see your vision stand
No perfection can be rushed, it's every angle flush
There's no gold without your touch
Lick your finger, touch the sky
Feel the wind that's blowing by
In between these city walls, those bridges standing tall
Men of Steel built them all
It's the 9 o'clock craze, out the door and on your way
Comin' home and hearin' "How was your day?"
Fine, overall, it was okay but you know there's more to say
Cuz all in good time, any color you'd like
Build one-by-one 'til your tower scrapes the sky
And under new lights all hidden in plain sight
Maybe you could take the time to see
The world set in stone you take for granted
Clean the gutters, trim the yard
You just don't know where to start
It's a shame but here you are
Now, that smile from the bar's the empty seat inside your car
It's back to 9 o'clock grays, out the door and on your way
Having no one home to ask you "How was your day?"
Fine, overall, it was okay but you know there's more to say
Cuz all in good time, any color you'd like
Build one-by-one 'til your tower scrapes the sky
And under new lights all hidden in plain sight
Maybe you could take the time to see
The world set in stone you take for granted
