[Verse 1] There's a hammer in my chest Working overtime for free Pounding rivets through the vest I wore down at the cannery Doc says it's the nerves again Says I ought to take it slow But this engine's got no brake or when Just a throttle stuck on go [Chorus] Ticker tape, ticker tape Running off the goddamn reel Every breath's an escape From this grinding steel wheel Ticker tape, ticker tape Heart's a fist that won't unclench Even sleep can't scrape This grinding off the bench [Verse 2] There's a bird inside my ribs Throwing itself against the bone Thrashing through its metal cribs Won't leave this body alone Count backwards, count the cracks In the ceiling by the bed But that bird just attacks The same walls inside my head [Chorus] Ticker tape, ticker tape Running off the goddamn reel Every breath's an escape From this grinding steel wheel Ticker tape, ticker tape Heart's a fist that won't unclench Even sleep can't scrape This grinding off the bench [Bridge] The night shift never ends When you're clocking in your veins The foreman never bends Just tightens up the chains [Verse 3] My hands shake like a drunk's But I ain't touched a drop This machine's got too much junk In the gears that just won't stop So I walk it off at dawn Through the empty streets downtown But that hammer just goes on Trying to nail me to the ground [Outro] Ticker tape, ticker tape This heart's a runaway train Ticker tape, ticker tape Rattling through the rain
