"Main Street" lyrics

"Main Street"

1942 Victorian
Bay window and a light on the front porch
He's out of town, she's three in
Fighting tears while she's cleaning off the baseboards
She found the Motel 6 evidence on his credit card
She wants to burn his shit on the green grass in the front yard

But they live on Main Street in a small town
Where the word runs when it gets out
Might as well be living in a glass house
Everybody sees when you take your trash out
She daydreams about the day she'll leave
This nightmare on Main Street
Ooh, on Main Street, ooh

She'd dye her hair and move to Charleston
But they've got two kids in the picture
By tomorrow night, he'll come walking in
And have the audacity to kiss her
She wants to scream out loud, grab her car keys and her jacket
But she's gonna kiss him back so the neighbors don't start asking, 'cause

They live on Main Street in a small town
Where the word runs when it gets out
Might as well be living in a glass house
Everybody sees when you take the trash out
She daydreams about the day she'll leave
This nightmare on Main Street
Ooh, on Main Street, ooh

Looks good on the surface
Apron and heels
But she's gettin' tired of keeping up that curb appeal

On Main Street in a small town
Where the word runs when it gets out
Might as well be living in a glass house
Everybody sees when you take the trash out
She daydreams about the day she'll leave
This nightmare on Main Street
Ooh, on Main Street, ooh

1942 Victorian
Bay window and a light on the front porch
He's out of town, she's three in
Fighting tears while she's cleaning off the baseboards
