[Verse 1]
Days rollin' by like local construction
The cranes try to scrape some more sky before quitting time
Work on it, work at it, work, but it's never done
Days rollin' by like local construction
I'm watching the tenements increase by increments
Work on it, work at it, work, but it's never done, no, no
[Chorus]
Fix the car, fix the house
Fix the flaws in myself
It's never done, no, no
It's never done, no, no
Like local construction, it's never done
[Verse 2]
Days rollin' by like local construction
The birds interrupt the CAT while it's parking
Work on it, work at it, work, but it's
Days rollin' by like local construction
Like one big blue tarpaulin draped over scenery
Work on it, work at it, work, but it's never done, no, no
[Chorus]
Fix the car, fix the house
Fix the flaws in myself
It's never done
It's never done, no, no
Like local construction, it's never done
Like local construction, it's never done, no no
[Bridge]
I'll forgive my manners
Jackhammers clambering on
[Chorus]
Fix the car, fix the house
Fix the flaws in myself
It's never done
It's never done, no, no
Like local construction, it's never done
Like local construction, it's never done, no no
