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

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)

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

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

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 lines are drawn

The map is such a drag

All you who changed your stripes can wrap me in the flag
