Break Up The Concrete




There was a red brick road where I grew up on


And a pretty stone wall round a fragrant lawn

Fish in the pond that sparkled in the dawn


But it ain't no more it's all gone gone gone




Whoa!


Ram it! Cram it! Grand Slam it!


Break up the concrete, Break up the concrete

Prod it! Sod it! Metal Rod it!


Break up the concrete,


Thwak it! Crack it! Lineback it!

Break up the concrete,


Shake it! Bake it! Earthquake it!


Break up the concrete




And the depot over there right next to the tracks


That the slaves put down, while breaking their backs

But those texas* zoo no would ever get into a carriage


Or anything that might lead to an interracial marriage


(*the uppermost deck of an inland or western river steamer)




Whoa!


Ram it! Cram it! Grand Slam it!!

Break up the concrete


Prod it! Sod it! Metal Rod it!


Break up the concrete

Thwak it! Crack it! Lineback it!


Break up the concrete


Shake it! Bake it! Earthquake it!

Break up the concrete





Now don't tell me its progress cause that's just a lie

And don't even try to come with an excuse why!


We we're so busy worrying about them dropping the bomb


We didn't notice where our enemy was really coming from!




Hey boys c'mon let's do it!




Ram it! Cram it! Grand Slam it!!

Break up the concrete,

Prod it! Sod it! Metal Rod it!


Break up the concrete

Shake it! Bake it! Earthquake it!


Break up the concrete

Ram it! Slam it! Just cram it!

One more time!


Break up the concrete

Break up the concrete




Now he who laid it, come back here and raid it!
