Listen to the morning
But please lend me a hand
With the trash piling up for six weeks now
This town really stinks
Everything's so crowded now
I got to get out to the sticks
Start my own franchise

Maybe we were living under a good sign
All that time
I'm sick of searching around
Trying to get hooked on a feeling
(2x)

Up town to go around
Don't get too tall
In the houses and the alleys
They scream and bawl
You can count on the police
They keep a private force
And if you got the money
In fact you got no choice

All this crap is like a melody
That we use for talk
It drives me insane
Everytime I'm out on the sidewalk
Stuck to the street like dirt
In the shadow of the hornets' nest
Fully prepared to get burned

Maybe we were living under a good sign
All that time
I'm sick of searching around
Trying to get hooked on a feeling
(2x)
