Built By Men

Built By Men
(Words and Music by Effron White)

Standing on my rooftop it’s like I’m on a boat
Floatin’ in the middle of a deep muddy moat
Rain came down, the river rolled in
That big ol’ levee it was built by men

CHORUS: Built by men who thought that it would last
They dug a hole in credit now it’s just another gash
All their big ideas have turned and kicked ‘em in the shin
Don’t it always crash when it’s built by men

They build tall towers all the way up to the sky
They travel in space shuttles thinking they can fly
They build a smarter bomb to save a foreign land
While everything at home just crumbles in the sand

CHORUS…

Instrumental Break…

History will show you they never get it right
Tinkering with their tools as the day turns into night
The Romans didn’t build Rome in a day
But boy the night fell hard on that old Etruscan Way

CHORUS…

Tag: They’ll build high and mighty up until the bitter end
But don’t it always crash when it’s built by men
