Escalators - I the Mighty

Escalators Lyrics

Floating down escalators
Your eyes are green, your heart is black
You've done some ugly things
Now it's too late to take them back
Just money mongers here
Who never filled their karma cups
Now death has brought them here
And this room in hell is filling upFrom town to town he came
To build his wealth he bought them out
Just build the biggest one
Then all the smaller ones come down
We live the golden age 1909, 1909
Much money to be made monopolize, monopolizeWoah oh, oh you're so
Deserving of the place you're in
Escalating down in rows
Woah oh, oh you're soul
Was conscious of the path you chose
Here's proof that somebody knowsOn a wooden stage he speaks

Eloquently about his feast
He swayed a simple folk
But in the middle of his speech
A none position screams
"A man of one! A man of one!"
His threat was well received
And so he hung and so he hungAnd now it's all verse one it's all verse one
(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)Woah oh, oh you're so
Deserving of the place you're in
Escalating down in rows
Woah oh, oh you're soul
Was conscious of the path you chose
Here's proof that somebody knowsAnd you can call, oh brother call
Yes, you can call, oh brother call
No one can hear you, not at all
But you can call, oh brother callAnd you can call, oh brother call
(Floating down escalators
You're eyes are green you're heart is black)Yes, you can call, oh brother call
(You've done some ugly things
Now it's too late to take them back)No one can hear you, not at all
(Just money mongers here
Who never filled their karma cups)But you can call, oh brother call
(Now death has brought them here
And this room in hell is filling up)We give you death by forty-five
It's what we call your last time out, your last time out
By forty-five, it's what we call your last time outWoah oh, oh you're so
Deserving of the place you're in
Escalating down in rows
Woah oh, oh you're soul
Was conscious of the path you chose
Here's proof that somebody knowsWe give you death by forty-five
It's what we call your last time out, your last time out
By forty-five, it's what we call your last time out
Your last time out
