10. Kick Down the Walls (4:54)
Took the long way to the shortcut, and the walls were made of stone
Took the low road to the high ground, had to feel it in my bones
Everybody wants some heaven, but nobody wants to die
It's been brought to my attention
You'll be dead a long time, now ain't that a crime

Kick down the walls, shake down the building, help me bust out of this cage
Kick down the walls, shake down the building, must be time for a change

I went driving in the moonlight, there was no place left to go
I went digging in my coalmine, when I hit the motherload
If this world could work together, like a big old human clock
It would run on till forever, it would never have to stop, never have to stop

Kick down the walls, shake down the building, help me bust out of this cage
Kick down the walls, shake down the building, must be time for a change

You can't buy no protection, don't care who you are
Spreading out in all directions, now it's no hold barred
Everybody runs for cover, from the sun and sex and sin
If you think you got the answers, buddy just you come on in, step right in

Kick down the walls, shake down the building, help me bust out of this cage
Kick down the walls, shake down the building, must be time for a change

Kick down the walls, shake down the building, help me bust out of this cage
Kick down the walls, shake down the building, must be time for a change

Kick down the walls, shake down the building
Kick down the walls, shake down the building
Kick down the walls, shake down the building
Kick down the walls, shake down the building
