Builders and Collectors - Fatso Jetson

I’ve been building

I’ve been collecting

Standard issue, middle class

I’ve been counting, hours working

Time consuming, taking out the trash

I’m the coward and you’re the clown

Digging ditches in the middle ground

Crossing wire, you break the chain

I know you gamble, but what will you gain?

I’ve been stumbling

I’ve been praying

Standard issue, middle class

I’ve been drinking, hours destroying

Time consuming, living in the trash

I’m the clown and you’re gone

Couldn’t take it sober, couldn’t stand the fun

Digging ditches in the middle ground

How could you miss a voice so loud?

I’ve been building

I’ve been collecting

Standard issue, middle class

I’ve been counting, hours working

Time consuming, taking out the trash

Taking out the trash

Taking out the trash

Taking out the trash

Taking out the trash
