Em
Gather up ye pots and cans,

Em
Gonna have to share the amps

D
And move along from band to band,

A
A race against the sinking sand.


Em
If the pigs come cruising by,

Em
We'll turn off all the lights

D
And keep the stick from hittin' skin

A
Until they're 'round the bend.

Em
This is where the Salt are sharing spit and sweat and steam.

D                                   A
The kids may all get out alive, but none of them go home the same.

Em
Another space is closed, you got no place left to go.

D                                     A
So go save someone else and don't you tell me 'bout no fire code.


Em
So welcome to the show,

D                     A
Down underground underneath below.

Em
Here you can make your own,

     G        D      
Just keep the smoke down.

G         D      
Keep your smoke from rising.


Em
There's a Laundromat on Main,

Em
By night another place.

D
From generators, vacant lots,

A
To underneath the Coffee Shop.

Em
"Someone upstairs is cool,

Em
Just leave no trace of you."

D
It's like a new inebriation

A
Against Prohibition.

Em
Only catch is you can't post the time or place.

        D                                  A
You got whisper codes on down the lane, it works better anyway.

Em
See, we tried to be legit, we got bound in red tape,

   D                      A
So had to do it on the sly. This is your noise complaint.

C                       Em        
Let's put the Middlemen out of a job.
