Come let us make bricks and burn them hard, We'll build a city with a tower for the world and climb so we can reach anything we may propose, anything at all

I know why you tore it down that day You thought, that if you got caught we'd all go away, Like a spoiled little baby who can't come out to play, You had your revenge
Build me up, tear me down like a skyscraper Build me up, then tear down these joining walls So they can't climb at all

Build me up, tear me down like a skyscraper Build me up, then tear down these joining walls So they can't climb at all
