Developer's Dream

Lyrics

From April to August
 The fields fill in.
 Each harvest
 They empty out again.
 From matress to matress
 You wheel and spin
 In circles tight as your abdomen.
 Do you know what it's like to give
 Out assistance that nobody needs?
 Do you know what it's like to live
 Surrounded by weeds? From weakness to weakness
 From strength to strength.
 To keep this
 I'd go to any length.
 From Haven to Gary(?)
 From hole to town
 I'll carry
 Each burden you throw down.
 Do you know what it's like to throw
 Out your love like a handful of seeds?
 Do you know what it's like to live
 Surrounded by weeds This country, where some must fail—
 You grew straighter while I stayed frail.
 And bitterness can erode the soul
 So wipe my name of that honour role;
 Same old flag up a new flag pole
 In the square where the town was founded...
 Have you ever been surrounded?
 As developer's dreams turn real
 With a pen and a fistful of deeds
 Do you know what it's like to feel
 Surrounded by weeds? From paycheck to paycheck
 The way we live
 While they check
 How good our credit is
 From castles to condos
 We'll build your dreams
 They want those
 Unlikely as it seems.
