Construction (2006)

By James Moats in Asheville, NC

They're tearing up the road again
Outside my house
So I write about construction
And nothing else

So bring your orange clay again
You call that earth?
Where I'm from, under the ground
Is black and brown

Got to make room for SUVs
Widen the lines
Just take that mountain down
Put up a stop light

They're changing Enka Lake again
The secret's out
Fill it with money to pave
A parking lot

Got to make room for SUVs
Widen the lines
Just take that mountain down
Put up a stop light
