If the 80's were tough, the 90's were mean

All that was left for the desperate

With that kind of juice, man, it ain't worth the squeeze

Verse
D Em D
Some people can't shake the weight of the past
Em D A
Some people's hearts remain at half-mast
Em D Em D
It's downtown where it all intersects

Some came from the mountains

Em D A
There's good and there's bad, and then there's some in between
Em D Em D
As I wait for the bus coming from the east
Em D A
There's generations of pride and elbow grease

I understand if it's all a bit much
Em D A
It's a bit of a circus; it's a little bit rough
Em D Em D
I heard this place was run by the mob
Em D A
Buying everyone off down at city hall
Em D Em D
Those Oakville moms, they stick up their nose
Em D A
Those Burlington dads keep their daughters at home
Em D Em D
If you're the kind with nothing to say
Em D A
You heard about this party, but you're praying for rain, what?
