The police had warned of repercussions, they followed none too soon
Let me collect dust, I wish someone would phone
I screamed and ran to smash my favorite slot machine
Panic in Detroit, he'd left me an autograph
Having scored a trillion dollars, made a run back home
The only survivor of the national people's gang
A trickle of strangers were all that were left alive
Panic in Detroit
Putting on some clothes I made my way to school
And I found my teacher crouching in his overalls
Found him slumped across the table, a gun and me alone
Panic in Detroit, I asked for an autograph
Panic in Detroit
I ran to the window, looked for a plane or two
He wanted to stay home, I wish someone would phone
And jumped the silent cars that slept at traffic lights
He laughed at accidental sirens that broke the evening gloom
He wanted to stay home, I wish someone would phone
Panic in Detroit, I asked for an autograph
