lyrics

Oh what a pain
To watch the acid rain
Fall upon those
With a frown
Oh what a city
It’s no crime to be sitting
While they’re kicking those
Who are down

What a pain caught in my eye
I can’t just let it pass me by

I’ll be the tryer
If you’ll listen up
A downtown crier
For when you’ve had enough
I’ll stoke the fire
And you can warm your hands
I’ll be the tryer
So we can start again

We’ll start again

Oh what the hell
There’s too many church bells
Ringing for those
Of my kind
Oh ain’t it pretty
The pessimism in me
Arguing hope
Makes me blind

What the hell, it’s not enough
I can’t just hope, gotta be tough

I’ll be the tryer
If you’ll listen up
A downtown crier
For when you’ve had enough
I’ll stoke the fire
And you can warm your hands
I’ll be the tryer
So we can start again
I’ll be the tryer
If you’ll listen up
A downtown crier
For when you’ve had enough
I’ll stoke the fire
And you can warm your hands
I’ll be the tryer
So we can start again

We’ll start again

What a pain, oh, what the hell
I’ll see you there, I’ll see you all
And I know only time will tell
If love breaks through or if we fall

I’ll be the tryer
If you’ll listen up
A downtown crier
For when you’ve had enough
I’ll stoke the fire
And you can warm your hands
I’ll be the tryer
So we can start again
I’ll be the tryer
If you’ll listen up
A downtown crier
For when you’ve had enough
I’ll stoke the fire
And you can warm your hands
I’ll be the tryer
So we can start again

We’ll start again
