"The Town Where I'm Livin Now" lyrics

"The Town Where I'm Livin Now"

In the town where I'm livin now wedding rings reek
And the records are held by the sad
The cameras can't find any smiles
And the water's the worst tasting I ever had

The grown-ups ride BMX bikes
Every now and then stopping to cry on a lawn
And the trees have turned black
And they're full of insane birds
Who can't remember any of their songs

There's shootouts and fist-fights by night in the graveyard
And multi-car pile-ups by day
And the freight train de-railed
And sank in the lake like a lobster it bubbles away

When you get here, the "welcome to this town" sign
It scares little kids with its skulls and it's gore
When you leave here, the "get the hell out" sign is well-kept
And pretty with floral decor
In the town where I'm livin' now
In the town where I'm livin' now
In the town where I'm livin' now
In the town where I'm livin' now
In the town where I'm livin' now
In the town where I'm livin' now
In the town where I'm livin' now
This is the town where I'm livin' now
