Lyrics

Everything is quiet now
But something's gonna blow

I've been noticing strangers
Casting each other
Conspiratorial glances
They must be in the know

A businesswoman talks
Into her cellular phone
She's calling in coordinates
The homeless are passing out
Semi-automatics
A policeman
With ticket book in hand
Is trying not to panic

Everything is quiet now
But something's gonna blow

A window washer photographs
Pedestrians of note
While down below
A Wells Fargo Wagon
(No doubt loaded with explosives"
Sits double parked (unnoticed)
In a tow-away zone

Everything is quiet now
But something's gonna blow

A sniper maintains a place in the shadows
Awaiting the signal to go
A hot dog vendor sells molotov cocktails
Ignited and ready to throw
The tension grows as the moment approaches
Which moment?
Nobody knows

Everything is quiet now
But something's gonna blow
