Kid was born to do it
They said he had the golden touch
And all was said and done
Just so they could come and watch him do it

Down in every city
Where people just can't get enough
When all was said and done
Everyone would be talking about
The next big thing

But every culmination
Had to earn its keep
And every force of nature
Was set free

It was such a pity
'cuz just as he was getting ready to make it
It all came tumbling down
And everyone got caught among the ruins

And all we had just turned to dust...

Every corporation
Brought down to its knees
Now everyone's a nation
Been set free

We were born to do it
Singing songs around the fire
'cuz when all is said and done
We're all just keeping warm among the ruins
Yeah when all is said and done
We're all just keeping warm among the ruins
Yeah when all was said and done
We're all just keeping warm among the ruins
