"Strangetown" lyrics

"Strangetown"

Make your plans, they are nice

This is a strange town
People here round don't ever a smile
I've been here two years, I've been lookin' round
Trying to find out
It seems that all people think about is calling people out

My Garden is overgrown
And weeds are creeping up on my home
Birds are nesting in the trees
Shout!

I can't believe all these people
Spend all their time walking round
Looking so glum
They think that life is for working
And gather their pension when retirement comes

There they only think about calling people out
And I can't be there to get the locks out of your hair

French windows don't open any more
And somebody's kid is talking at my door

Branches growing up to ten foot high

This is a strange town
People here round don't ever smile
I've been here twenty three years, I've been lookin' round
But I can't find out
There's a kid talking to himself
I thought he's in bad health
[?]

1, 2, 3, 4

This is a strange town
The birds are too scared to fly, I think
I've been stressed by a spy
The kid talking to himself by the door outside

But I'm not going to touch a single blade of grass
My garden will be like a distant past
From the days of sophmore
For the days you don't listen anymore

This is a strange town
People here round don't ever smile
I've been here two weeks
I've been looking round
But I can't find out

I really like the bees
[?]
[?]
And the bees are in their hives
And right behind me is a deficit of sky

[?]
By the bin, by the yard

The pink iPod is spewed out
