The Pizza Song

On a dark street, on a cold night

Pizza's cooking in a storefront oven

On the corner a boy is waiting

The moonlight feels cold and desperate

Some hidden sadness has bound down

Attention lives all over town

Ready to burst open into driving, burning exploding sound

If these walls could sing, they'd sing us a hundred songs

And if these walls could talk, they'd say they'd seen it coming all along, all along

Tony's making slice pies for the lunch rush

Stirring the sauce pounding out the dough

His brother left town with his girl

She ain't his girl no more

And some days they seem to never end

So mundane in this old town

Ready to burst open into driving, burning exploding sound.

If these walls could sing, they'd sing us a hundred songs

And if these walls could talk, they'd say they'd seen it coming all along, all along

May all these walls we've made in our wasted years and days

Not stand in our way that we may feel the winds of change, change

If these walls could sing, they'd sing us a hundred songs

And if these walls could talk, they'd say they'd seen it coming all along, all along
