Don't build the bridge
If you don't want to let the riffraff over
Close up the gate it flows both ways
When the crossing's open
The Bering Strait in an ice age
In an ice age

Don't build the bridge
If you're staying away from troubled water
Come on, come on think twice
A broken stretch of ice with no end in sight
The Bering Strait in an ice age
In an ice age

You won't let your guard down
But you invite disaster home
Sometimes islands should just be islands
And just left alone

Don't build the bridge
If you don't want to let the riffraff over
