Hometown

The Great Impersonator专辑

  • 作曲 : Pending
    Davey died in the summertime in a hot-boxed car
    With a seatbelt 'round his neck and a needle in his arm
    We would smoke out in the parking lot behind convenience shops
    I bought a couple of grams of weed off him, but so did all the cops
    Back then

    The kids from all the county, we would walk out in the heat
    Along the train tracks with our paper bags and gravel in our feet
    In our heads, we picked a husband from the hundred men we knew
    But I kissed a poster of a popstar and checked my breasts in case they grew

    There ain't a reason on this earth I'd go back to my hometown
    Somewhere in the clouds, Davey's running for a touchdown
    The crowd appears and his mother cheers, she's waving from the field
    And he's evergreen at seventeen for the last eleven years

    You know, I never felt like anyone, I was a paradox, ol' lie
    I didn't think that I was special, but I was too afraid to die
    Like the others from my high school, all those sad suburban ghosts
    Trapped in a cross next to a highway while the rest of us get old

    There ain't a reason on this earth I'd go back to my hometown
    Somewhere in the clouds, Davey's running for a touchdown
    The crowd appears and his mother cheers, she's waving from the field
    And he's evergreen at seventeen for the last eleven years

    The American dream means staying young forever
    In a picture in a pamphlet, getting yellow from the weather
    And years will pass since science class, and I might forget your name
    But when the crow's feet come, to kingdom come, you'll always look the same

    There ain't a reason on this earth I'd go back to my hometown
    Somewhere in the clouds, Davey's running for a touchdown
    The crowd appears and his mother cheers, and he's waving from the field
    He's evergreen at seventeen for the last eleven years

    (Evergreen at seventeen)
    (Evergreen at seventeen)
    (Evergreen at seventeen)
    (Evergreen at seventeen)
