Hustle * Bustle * Push * Pull

The ever changing skyline of the city by the bay

Is a fascinating creature and a challenge every day.

 

The people and the bustle and the hustle of the rush

In the ever moving, pulling, pushing, cramming, crazy crush.

 

It's enough to make you crazy; to push you to the brink.

It can grind your brain to sausage; Drive a sober man to drink.

 

But the millions seem to love it,

And they come back every day.

They swarm in from suburbia

Like sheep who’ve lost their way.

 

They do their little daily tasks

To serve their fellow man,

And when they're done they run for home

As quickly as they can.

 

But that's the way things happen;

The way it's always been.

The winners wind up losers.

The losers seldom win.

 

So, we feed the social creature

So as not to make us lazy,

And we come back to the city

For our daily dose of crazy.
