Man On The Edge

Man On The Edge
Alright, the story about a briefcase, a lunch, and a man on the edge
The freeway is jammed and it's backed up for miles
This car is an oven and baking is wild
Nothing is ever the way it should be
What we deserve we don't get, you see

A briefcase, a lunch, and a man on the edge
Each step he's closer to losing his head
Is someone in heaven? Are they looking down?
Nothing is fair, you look around
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
He's sick of waiting, of lying like this
There's a hole in the sky for the angels to kiss
Branded a leper because you don't fit
In the land of the free you just live by your wits
Once he built missiles, a nation's defense
Now he can't even give birthday presents
Across the city he leaves in his wake
A glimpse of the future a cannibal state
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down, yeah
The freeway is jammed and it's backed up for miles
This car is an oven and baking is wild
Nothing is ever the way it should be
What we deserve we just don't get, you see

A briefcase, a lunch, and a man on the edge
Each step he's closer to losing his head
Is someone in heaven? Are they looking down?
Nothing is fair, you look around, sing it with me
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down
Falling down, yeah, yeah
