lyrics

This city is closed off from the outside world. The picturesque setting of a beautiful mural of the typical man with his eyebrow unfurled but it never holds anything. Yearning for that space breeds discontent so let's stick out our thumbs. Just tell me when. How could I refuse? What have I got to lose? We'll be hopping this train at noon

Stick to the freedom of the open road. Don't you stray. Don't deviate. Follow your toes. One of these days I know we'll find a better home but until that day, I want that home to be the road.

And for far too long I've been stuck here without my best friend, my lover and I don't know how to tell them "I love you. It's great you're around but let's get the fuck out of this town". And from the outskirts of town to the edge of the sea, how could I ever call this community? I don't want to be just another yuppie. Those bastards won't get me.

And at last we've arrived. This place un-deprived of comrades and sisters and brothers alike, congregated all in your basement, drunk and belligerent and that's how we like it.
