Relient K - Local Construction Lyrics
Days rolling by like local construction
The cranes try to scrape some more sky before quitting time
Work on it, work at it, work, but it's never done
Days rolling by like local construction
Work on it, work at it, work, but it's never done, no no
Fix the car, fix the house
Fix the flaws in myself
It's never done, no no
It's never done, no no
Like local construction
It's never done
Days rolling by like local construction
Work on it, work at it, work, but it's...
Days rolling by like local construction
Like one big blue tarpaulin draped over scenery
Work on it, work at it, work, but it's never done, no no
Fix the car, fix the house
Fix the flaws in myself
It's never done
It's never done, no no
Like local construction
It's never done
Like local construction
It's never done, no no
I'll forget my manners, this headache's so stammering
These jackhammers clammering on
Fix the car (fix the car),
Fix the house (fix the house),
Fix the flaws (fix the flaws) in myself
It's never done
It's never done, no no
Like local construction
(Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws in myself)
It's never done
(Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws) (It's never done)
Like local construction
(Fix the house, fix the flaws in myself)
(Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws)
It's never done, no no
(It's never done)
Like local construction
(Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws in myself)
It's never done
(Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws) (It's never done)
Like local construction
(Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws in myself)
It's never done, no no
(Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws)
Like local construction

Relient K Local Construction Comments
Why do I feel like this song is 15 years old. I know the words...
Guys it never was religion they live for the true living Jesus Christ our lord and savior. that’s why they have that peace guys ,real talk I use say religion to until I tried Jesus for myself and decided to repent, it’s very real guys ,trust me Christian is relationship with Christ that’s all ,God doesn’t like religion , the only way to the father is by his son Jesus Christ. And he died over 2019 years ago for me n all people in the world. it’s all choice guys.
Love❤❤❤
The music is so fitting to the lyrics.. I'm so happy :))
What a lovely song . Please God rearrange my life 🙏
Oh Relient K. You are so great. Some of these songs take me back to the /Two Lefts Don't Make a Right/ days.
Perfect blend of Relient K and, dare I say, Vampire Weekend?
I grew up listening to Relient K with my big brother and we are really close, my brother is a lot of the reason I am who I am today. My brother and I went to a concert a few months back and we both cried like babies. Thank you, Relient K, for being awesome. ❤️
definitely my fav song on the album.
I was listening to windchimes and it reminded me of this song :)
Why can't this song be longer 😢
I'm going to the looking for Canada tour in Vancouver and I was originally just going for switchfoot but I listened to a few of your songs and I love you guys! I'm so excited to hear two amazing Christian bands play live! God bless you!!!!!
fix the car ,fix house, fix flaws in myself /it's nerve done
If there's any negative to this song, it would be that it left me wanting more,
particularly at @2:06 the motivational speak-singing-turned-shouting is like something straight off a Set Your Goals track and it makes me want to hear Relient K try more in the same vein.
Local Construction is hands down my favorite on the album. The emotions and styles it goes between so perfectly just can't be replicated. No words do it justice; it's so dynamic, it keeps you on the edge of your seat; and the whole song I'm just waiting for it to ROCK hard and it finally does by the end.
just saw them in concert!!! awesome song
is.... is that a Bracorn? Brontacorn? Acornasaurus?
What the heck is that lol
I love this song!!
DUDE THEY BACK!!!
Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws in myself / It's never done.
This song is very well done.
Hey Relient K, I've been calling you my favorite band for four years now, might not be long but you're always my no.1 reccomendation :D I love the amount of thought that goes into your lyrics, how you write songs that can be listened to as if they are about a girl or about God, DAVE YOU'RE LEGIT MY FAV DRUMMER NEED YOU MATE! :D I love all the references and hidden meaning, all the hidden tracks and artworks, ah!
I know you've just brought this album out, but will there be another? :D OR PLEASE COME TO AUSTRALIA~~~
Jesus is doing all the work but i keep getting in his way
"Fix the car, fix the house, fix the flaws in myself, it's never done. Like local construction." Love it!
I love this song *-*
Where's the dbeats
No need to worry. David Douglas did record the drums for the entire album.
Rock those drums Dave Douglas! This is a great song guys...
+CanadianBread Sadly not officially, but in my opinion he's back in Relief K (which I've been waiting for since 2007)! He played/recorded the drums for Air For Free and is touring the album (to my knowledge) this next tour that's starting September.
Of course. Just a bit of info on what they're currently doing for anyone who's interested. John Schneck left the band in 2015 and is working on another project (Comics, I believe) and living in Nashville, TN. Here's a link to his website (johnathanschneck.com/about/). All I've gathered about John Warne since his departure is that he's currently living in his hometown of Denver, CO. Ethan Luck is currently a guitar technician for the band "Cold War Kids."
I do miss the guys, but I'm so glad that Dave is working with the Matt's again. Btw, check out Dave's band called Attack Cat. I believe his reason for departing Relient K in 2008 (not 2007 like I previously said) was mostly due to him wanting to write music with his wife.
+CanadianBread Yeah he's with Owl City. Are you referring to "That's My Jam" that was recorded for "Collapsible Lung?" Or what did they did they collaborate on last year?
Oh cool. I'll have to check that out.
