Oh Detroit, Lift Up You Weary Head!

Once a great place, now a prison

All I can say, all I can do

People mover, bad decision, from suburban, now a prison

All I can say, all I can do



From the trembling walls, it's a great idea

Everything you want, it's a great idea

Once a great place, now a prison

All I can say, all I can do

After dark, after dark



Tigers game, tigers game

From the trembling walls, it's a great idea

Everything you want, it's a great idea

(Hesitate to burn the buildings)

From the Renaissance, it's a great idea

Everything you want, it's a great idea



Throw them all away, it's a great idea

From the Renaissance, it's a great idea

Everything you want

(Hesitate to burn the buildings)
