Where we are, it's very lonely
There we are, oh God if only
Either one of us would go away
Where we are, is next to nowhere

Even the highway just hates to go there
Nothing in the world could make it stay
Why do we sit here in misery
Is it democracy or just insane?

You and your yen to be high in society
Speaking financially, it looks like rain:
And you say "boy, you better be nice to me

I'll take what is coming to you
I'll take all the property too"

Where we are is holy deadlock
God had a nerve when he named it wedlock
Couldn't he have found another way?
