Mexico

I worked on a job for a real big man

His daddy set him up with a  ---

He arrived later on to the building site

Oh yeah he was looking for trouble alright

First thing he said was "I don't hire you so you could smoke

"'cause of fuckers like you that I'm nearly broke"

Well I looked at the day's work that I had done

And I exploded like a nail gun

I said "thank you

"But I've got to go

"I gotta catch the train to Mexico"

I said "thank you very much

"But I've got to go

"I gotta catch the train to Mexico"

I said "thank you very much

"But I've got to go

"I gotta catch the train to Mexico"

I said "thank you very much

"But I've got to go

"I gotta catch the train to Mexico"

Mmm

And all lives are defined by uncertainty

And I'll settle down when I'm old and grey

And I burn through bridges like their cigarette

Keep my head down, no time for no regrets

Ohh

Swear days are rolling down the poor boy's head

Grey hairs never grew, their roots were dead

And I'll be building bridges, watch them fall away

Keep my head down, I'm blinded by today

Ahh
