Murder At The 18th St. Garage Lyrics

I'm in the repair bay casting spells
Mystic in the glow of the spotlight
Ringing out the funeral bells
Tending the fires, gathering power
May I present the man of the hour

Placing his faith in the strength of the safety visor
Placing his faith in the strength of the safety visor
Leaving only slightly diminished
Older but wiser

I'm down on the concrete with a bucket and rag
When you've got a big job to do
You notice how the moments drag
Live in the present, savor the grind
Relish the time before you have to leave it behind

Placing your faith in the strength of the safety visor
Placing your faith in the strength of the safety visor
Leaving only slightly diminished
Older but wiser

Smarter but scared, now
Wearing an exile's mark
One that's going to glow in the dark

I'm out on the sidewalk, scrubbed clean
Take all your worry and care
Feed it to the big machine
Once you commit to the turn, you're going to have to follow through
Cover your eyes when the splash comes
It's the only thing you can do

Placing your faith in the strength of the safety visor
Placing your faith in the strength of the safety visor
Leaving only slightly diminished
Older but wiser
