Avenues - Common Threat Lyrics

Everybody on the take
Winning smile and firm handshake
Empty promise yet again
This friendship is just pretend
Pick a pocket cheat and steal
Under table make a deal
Take a cut take take take
Sign a name for a tax break
Shattered glass
Shattered dreams
This is a common theme
Rising tension
Rising debt
We fight a common Threat
Story told is a white lie
Camouflaged by suit and tie
Making empty promises
Make it better for the kids
Change the world on a platform
Ignore the impending storm
Spend money hand over fist
Add a name to the blacklist
Shattered glass
Shattered dreams
This is a common theme
Rising tension
Rising debt
We fight a common Threat
Shattered glass
Shattered dreams
This is a common theme
Rising tension
Rising debt
We fight a common Threat
Shattered glass
Shattered dreams
This is a common theme
Rising tension
Rising debt
We fight a common Threat
