Don't Tear It Down

[00:39.21] Stonemasons
[00:41.84] Are becoming things of the past
[00:45.22] And the modern age
[00:48.17] Is finally taking us over at last
[00:51.52] Don't you wonder why?
[00:54.76] They're tearing all the the old houses down
[00:58.18] Can't they see?
[01:01.04] That they're the best places around
[01:05.60] Don't tear it down
[01:08.95] There's life in it yet
[01:12.17] Don't tear it down
[01:14.71]
[01:26.02] Don't you know that
[01:27.88] History
[01:29.98] Is written there deep in the walls
[01:32.90] But the march of progress
[01:36.32] Just wants to pour concrete over us all
[01:39.41] Craftsmanship
[01:42.33] The stone was cut by hand
[01:45.80] Bulldozers
[01:48.96] Are taking over the land
[01:53.42] Don't tear it down there's life in it yet
[01:59.83] Don't tear it down there's time for us yet
[02:06.16] Don't tear it down
[02:08.55]
[02:46.91] An expressway
[02:50.01] Is planning to come thru our lounge
[02:53.24] Eviction notes in business coats
[02:56.41] Never renovate they just tear it down
[02:59.64] A nation's heritage
[03:03.03] They want to bring down without a sound
[03:06.37] Another new town
[03:09.51] On top of the real town
[03:13.73] Don't tear it down there's life in it yet
[03:20.32] Don't tear it down there's time for us yet
[03:26.74] Don't tear it down there's life in it yet
[03:33.01] Don't tear it down
[03:35.94]
