Mister Nico [Master Jack]
Broken windows
Bolted doors
Dust lies thick upon the floors
Soon machines and men will be
Breaking down what's part of him
Through the concrete
Through the steel
He see things no others will
Not just wealth but heartbreak, too
And I wonder what old Nick will do
Close up shop, Mister Nico
That's what the big man said
Make way for concrete and steel
And no one even cared
Now times will change
Times will choose
Who's to win and who's to lose
Progress can for many men
Be the start or mean the end
Close up shop, Mister Nico
That's what the big man said
Make way for concrete and steel
And no-one even cared
Now it's just a memory
It's just a thought
If something's sold then something's bought
Poor old Nick he never sold
He wouldn't leave till he was told
Close up shop, Mister Nico
That's what the big man said
Make way for concrete and steel
And no-one even cared
Make way for concrete and steel
And no-one even cared
