its a pylon, i dont call it a road cone because at my old old school they were used to block off areas where we weren't allowed to go...and that wasn't the road..it was in a schoolyard...everyone at school always called them pylons and it was a while before i ever heard them called anything else...

Brutus is an honorable man
It's just coincidence that oil men will wage war in an oil rich land
And this one goes out to my man taking cover in the trenches with a gun in his hand
Then gets home and no one flinches when he can't feed his fam...
But Brutus is an honorable man...

Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.
Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

this is most definately a pylon, but for some reason, i laughed hysterically at the idea of a "road cone". 
Without you I'm as good as
dead ...
damn i can't find a picture of a real traffic pylon, so i'm gonna have to take a picture of one on the local s streets. then i'll set you folks straight.

It's a traffic cone.
A pylon is one of those big metal thingies that holds up the electricity wires.
From dictionary.com:
py·lon ( P ) Pronunciation Key (pln)
n.
A steel tower supporting high-tension wires.
A tower marking a turning point in a race among aircraft.
A large structure or group of structures marking an entrance or approach.
A monumental gateway in the form of a pair of truncated pyramids serving as the entrance to an ancient Egyptian temple.
Nowhere does it mention them being little orange cones

Open your eyes to nights and days, you close them up and float away
and somehow inbetween you've got to master lying to yourself
you back the cause, get out of school, you get a job, the job gets you
and somehow every day you end up serving somebody else
now if that ain't panic that you're feeling, then you damn well better start
you can drive it into that head of yours with the hammer in your heart.
And it's alriiiiiiiight now, take the world and make it yours again.
