Well, I'm stand-ing by a ri-ver But the wa-ter does-n't flow
It boils with eve-ry poi-son you can think of
And I'm un-der-neath a street-light And de-light a joy I know
Scared - be-yond be-lief - way down in the sha-dows
And a per-ver-ted fear of vio-lence chokes the smile on eve-ry face
And - com-mon-sense is ring-ing out the bell
This ain't no tech-no-lo-gi-cal break-down
Oh no, this is the road - to hell
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . . .
All the roads jam up with cre-dit And there's noth-ing you can do
It�s all just pie-ces of pa-per, fly-ing a-way from you
Oh look out world, take a good look What comes down here
You must learn this les-son fast - and learn it well
This ain't no up-ward-ly mo-bile free-way Oh no, this is the road
- Said this is the road - This is the road - to hell
