Lyrics to Rivet

Once I built a railroad, I made it run

I made it race against time

Once I built a railroad, but now it's done

Brother, can you spare a dime?



Once I built a railroad, I made it run

Made it race against time

Once I built a railroad, but now it's done

Brother, can you spare a dime?



And time might run in straight lines

Why does this all seem so damn cyclical?

Time might run in straight lines

Why does this all feel so played out before?



Let's make America great again

Let's make America great again

Land of innovation, land of common sense

Let's make American great again



What separates us now is off by less than six degrees

It's not necessarily character, it's opportunity

All praise be to the new god who speaks so elegantly

Who says, “America is not great, but it can be.”



Once I built a tower up to the sun

Brick and rivet and lime

Once I built a tower, but now it's done

Brother, can you spare a dime?



Once everything was simply falling downward

Once everything was full collapse



Let's make America great again

Let's make America great again

Land of innovation, land of common sense

Let's make American great again



And I know I'm not the first to say it

Not the first to have these thoughts out loud

No country's history is free from bullshit

But everyone just seems so fucking proud



Leap with faith, fly blindly

Through a history gone wrong

Let the people's voices rip through your ears

“I sold my kingdom for a song.”

“I sold my kingdom for a song.”

“I sold my kingdom for a song.”
