Same Old Story,Concrete - Sleeping Dogs.mp3
[00:02.62]From generation...
[00:02.62]From generation to generation it continues.
[00:07.00]Passing on the fear and the guilt.
[00:10.91]Handing down
[00:12.76]the lust for power
[00:14.66]and the lack of vision that results.
[00:18.58]From father to son,
[00:26.91]the prejudice lives on.
[00:28.89]Teaching the good old way.
[00:31.78]How to exploit, to profit, to gain.
[00:35.75]Let no one else have their say.
[00:39.57]And some rebel,
[00:47.85]but most agree.
[00:49.74]As father would say:
[00:51.64]"What's in it for me?"
[00:53.03]So the boy takes the gun,
[01:01.92]like a dutiful son.
[01:03.82]The world's not yet destroyed.
[01:06.65]Can he get the job done?
[01:09.60]Can he get the job...
[01:12.59]Can he get the job
[01:16.23]DONE?!
[01:30.87] ''Concrete''
[02:06.51]Concrete walls are spreading.
[02:08.71]You see them more and more.
[02:12.38]Soon we will be so cut off,
[02:16.94]we won't know what life is for.
[02:23.83]Some are shocked in mental homes,
[02:30.53]or locked behind prison walls.
[02:34.05]The rest of us get office blocks,
[02:38.34]highways and shopping malls.
[02:41.75]Those shopping centres are advancing,
[02:50.84]covering the hills.
[02:52.96]This one has twenty restaurants.
[02:57.59]To glut away our ills.
[03:03.06]Back at the institutions
[03:17.13]that wait beyond these walls.
[03:21.71]Guards live in houses in a row,
[03:25.00]and they're behind the fences too.
[03:37.25]Radio waves don't like concrete
[03:40.81]if your driving in a car.
[03:43.46]you're trying to get a message through.
[03:48.16]You have the radio on.
[03:52.56]Your driving under an overpass
[03:55.62]and the music's power is gone.
