Pigeon Park - Stripes Lyrics
Fingers are itchin’ for a fightLike a work man hanging from his neck tieWork through the day but in the nightNo, you can’t sleepYou comb your mind for the reasons whyWhy you were once so complacentBut now your wheels hit the pavementWe earn our stripes(Day and night, day and night, day and night)Put in our time(Day and night, day and night, day and night)You’re a deep man but the money’s paper thinCashing a cheque like a cut on the skinYou need a change, where to beginWell you got an empty headSo there’s room for something moving inAll the time you were wastingNow your wheels hit the pavementWe earn our stripes(Day and night, day and night, day and night)Put in our time(Day and night, day and night, day and night)Oh, this world we live in, go broke or give inWe earn our stripes(Day and night, day and night, day and night)It’s like we’re waisting awayJust for a little bit of payIf we never find a way to growDrink the well until it’s dry, oh myAnd If we can’t define the line between right and wrongWe’ll be living bottom barrell till we reach our dying dayOk, alrightRight, rightWe earn our stripes(Day and night, day and night, day and night)Put in our time(Day and night, day and night, day and night)Oh, this world we live in, go broke or give inWe earn our stripes(Day and night, day and night, day and night)
