in the town where i'm living now wedding rings reek
and the records are held by the sad
the cameras can't find any smiles
and the water's the worst tasting i ever had
the grown-ups ride BMX bikes
every now and then stopping to cry on a lawn
the trees have turned black
and they're full of insane birds who can't remember any of their songs
shootouts and fist-fights by night in the graveyard
multi-car pile-ups by day
and the freight train de-railed and sank in the lake
like a lobster it bubbles away
when you get here, the "welcome to this town" sign,
it scares little kids with its skulls and it's gore
when you leave here, the "get the hell out" sign is well-kept
and pretty with floral decor
in the town where i'm livin' now
