Joy Town (acoustic version) Lyrics

Fathers they have big hands
and they pat gently on your head
And mothers they all make sure
everyone is happy and well fed
And everything is instant,
no one has to wait too long
And Lennon never has to sing
a Paul McCartney song
Hey, we're living here in Joytown,
it's the City of the Sun
And everyone loves everyone
loves every single one

And no one sells his roommate's stuff
so he can get a fix
And no one fears the darkness,
no one fears the number six
And everyone talks openly
of great things that they have read
And no one ever says the things
that are better left unsaid
And everyone has someone they
can share their sadness with
And no one leaves the slightest doubt,
no one takes the fifth

We're living here in Joytown,
it's the City of the Sun
And everyone loves everyone
loves every single one
Jesus and Muhammed
(joy)
and Buddha live in town
(town)
Zoraster and Ba'h'aula
(joy)
and Moses hangs around
(town)
And when they get together
(joy)
they are quite a noisy crew
(town)
They laugh about their legacies
(joy)
over cigarettes and brews
(town)
Hey we're living here in Joytown,
ooh, the City of the Sun
And everyone loves everyone
loves every single one

Senator McCarthy
enjoys a book by Marx
People tear down parking lots
So they can build more parks
And Jimi plays the perfect note
that never seems to end
And Martin Luther King has got
a blond white girlfriend

We're singing here in Joytown
Won't you come and sing along?
We'll never tell you that you ain't singing the right notes,
never tell you that you're wrong

(joy, town)
(livin' in joytown, livin' in joytown)
(joy, town)
