Invisible hand around the throat of my town
Getting harder with every stroke - breaking ground
On a new walmart that the market demanded.
Woke up in a small town in the back of my car
Copy/paste from the last town. Man, it can’t be far
That we don’t know the difference between any place at all.
Could the market be wrong?
It doesn’t feed anything but itself.
Yeah, the market was wrong.
The parts of my city they say are cleaning up
Are just strip malls with brighter stucco.
Another place you could prove your worth by spending.
Maybe growth and progress aren’t the same.
Invisible hand around the throat of my town
