There's a town out there I spent a little time I almost didn't make it out alive Since I did I thought I'd write a song About the things I saw while I was there Had the same clothes Had the same name So I took off running right out of that town Hope I never have to go back again Chorus: I won't tell you just where it is in case I ever have to go back again But you're gonna know it if you ever pass through it Provided that they let you in Well, the moms and the dads, they drove the same cars They had the same jobs and they didn't think a lot If I didn't think I'd get in trouble with the law I tell you I'd of laughed out loud Kids got the same grades, wore the same shoes Struttin' in maroon, velcro kangaroos Which I liked enough, I tried to get a pair But they didn't have any to spare [ Chorus ] I could tell right away I wouldn't fit in Had the right color eyes and the right color skin But I didn't know the sign or the magic word And I think that they knew I smoked a bit from time to time [ Chorus ]
