Future Letdown
Small city, city lights light up the parking lots
Summertime, summer nights constellations we forgot
Side street sidewalk suburbs like an afterthought.
The future let us down.
Comic strip, strip malls calling out with neon signs
Underpass passenger. Graffiti writes between the lines.
Ring tone tone poems, new ambitions reassigned.
The future let us down.
Mean girls only know half the story
Invisible punches for hidden glory.
Underdogs understand Somebody Super Like You.
Cool kids sharpen their shirtsleeve aces
Team spirit shines on reflected faces.
The Cosmopolitans sing
For the good times.
Back door doorways open to the alley shops
Rain storm storm fronts moving like a juggernaut.
Green space spacewalk echo Bowie's astronaut
The future let us down.
Main St. streetlight shadows that we can ignore
Run-down downtown independent record store
Vee Jay Jimmy Reed nothiing like they heard before.
The future let us down.
Lost boys looking for a different story.
Borrowing traces of fading glory
Underdogs understand Somebody Super Like You.
Foreign kids only know turncoat aces
Home teams play for hometown faces
The Cosmopolitans sing
For the good times.
We know that love goes to buildings on fire
We make our plans to set fire to this town.
Small city, city lights light up the parking lots
Summertime, summer nights constellations we forgot
Side street sidewalk suburbs like an afterthought.
The future let us down.
Comic strip, strip malls calling out with neon signs
Underpass passenger. Graffiti writes between the lines.
Ring tone tone poems, new ambitions reassigned.
The future let us down.
Mean girls only know half the story
Invisible punches for hidden glory.
Underdogs understand Somebody Super Like You.
Cool kids sharpen their shirtsleeve aces
Team spirit shines on reflected faces.
The Cosmopolitans sing
For the good times.
Small city, city lights light up the parking lots
Summertime, summer nights constellations we forgot
Side street sidewalk suburbs like an afterthought.
The future let us down.
Summertime, summer nights constellations we forgot
Side street sidewalk suburbs like an afterthought.
The future let us down.
Comic strip, strip malls calling out with neon signs

Ring tone tone poems, new ambitions reassigned.
The future let us down.

Summertime, summer nights constellations we forgot
Side street sidewalk suburbs like an afterthought.
The future let us down.
