Lyrics
From the front door to the drugstore
From the drugstore to the bakery
From the loading dock to the chimes of the city clock
They are about to make their play for me
But I will rise, 'cause I got guys
I got guys, guys on every corner
With your tabloid stars and your unmarked cars
With your special forces and your inside sources
With your radar fields and your riot shields
And heavy horses, I am coming to
Swat you down like flies
'Cause I got guys, guys on every corner
They don't look so special
T-shirts and tennis shoes
Blank expressions
A couple of Chicago guys
A robust East Bay delegation
East Bay
From the far ends of the earth
They have loosely gathered
To stand in doorways making small talk
About the weather
They look like nothing
They look like your neighbors
You won't remember their faces later
Run like rats, look to the skies
'Cause I got guys, guys on every corner
