Iron Maiden — Man on the Edge

[Verse 1] The freeway is jammed, and it's backed up for miles The car is an oven and baking is wild Nothing is ever the way it should be What we deserve we just don't get, you see [Pre-Chorus 1] A briefcase, a lunch, and a man on the edge Each step gets closer to losing his head Is someone in heaven? Are they looking down? 'Cause nothing is fair, just you look around [Chorus] Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down [Verse 2] He's sick of waiting, of lying like this There's a hole in the sky for the angels to kiss Branded a leper because you don't fit In the land of the free, you just live by your wits [Pre-Chorus 2] Once, he built missiles, a nation's defence Now he can't even give birthday presents Across the city, he leaves in his wake A glimpse of the future: a cannibal state [Chorus] Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down [Guitar Solo] [Verse 1] The freeway is jammed, and it's backed up for miles The car is an oven and baking is wild Nothing is ever the way it should be What we deserve we just don't get, you see [Pre-Chorus 1] A briefcase, a lunch, and a man on the edge Each step gets closer to losing his head Is someone in heaven? Are they looking down? 'Cause nothing is fair, just you look around [Chorus] Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down [Outro] Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down Falling down
