Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
Hudson died in Hudson Bay
The water took its victim's name
The river's rise told Riverside
To change their names again.
A stranger walked in through the door
Said all apartments are pre-war
We laughed and asked him for his name
He stayed until the end.
We watched the Germans play the Greeks
We marked the 99 year lease
Our fathers signed
Which I declined to try and comprehend.
[Chorus:]
Over and over again, all these never-ending visions
Over and over again like a prize that's changing hands
The time has a come
The clock is such a drag
All you who changed your stripes can wrap me in the flag.
The legendary wooden gate
The first established real estate
Is lost in time like all the crimes that won this pleasant land (land, land).
[Chorus]
Hudson died on Hudson Bay
But I was born on Sudden Place
The rising tide helped me decide to change my name again
Some tend to linger on and some may case from Babylon
Some will roam their ruined home, rejoicing 'till the end.
[Chorus]
The lines are drawn
The map is such a drag
All you who changed your stripes can wrap me in the flag
