about

A look at how what is considered to be progress in the name of industry, production, and convenience is not progress at all.

lyrics

Way out west in no man's land
Highways web through diamond spans
Taking in a traffic jam cars like water in a dam
I'm getting no where - they're going nowhere
It's progress in progress

Way out west in no man's land
Got burger kings for uncle sam
Buffalo dust for the Indian
While the ocean waves bye bye
I'm getting nowhere - they're going nowhere
It's progress in progress

Progress in progress you can't slow it down
Progress in progress no slowing it down

They'll back it up and jack it up
Until they give it up
Back it up and jack it up
Until they give it up

Silhouetted clouds between me and the moon
Cast shadows on the water
And I sit here between the steel of the railroad track
And the great smoke stacks tower over me
It's progress in progress

Way out west in no man's land
Machines replace the working man
Buildings rise and homes come down
While people sleep on streets in town

And when the rains begin to pour
The merchandise stays dry indoors
But there's one thing I fail to get
Why so many people must get wet
