They're Trying to Sell My Books
I don't wanna leave town
Wonder why I like it
Well I haven't got
Any other place to be
And here
Well it's not that bad
And I can pass the phone around
If it's nobody interesting
And they have been packing my stuff
But I haven't gone just yet
And they're trying to sell my books to scare me out
But I'm not leaving town
And do you mind?
No I don't mind
If they pay me back
Oh but if not well that's too bad
I'll just hang around
And all my friends have left town
Got jobs or simply went around
And I've been making drawings of the streets
Cause what's the use in leaving
When you can spend your time dreaming of the worst
And the best times that could be
And they have been packing my stuff
But I haven't gone just yet
And they're trying to sell my books to scare me out
But I'm not leaving town
And do you mind?
No I don't mind
If they pay me back
Oh but if not well that's too bad
I'll just hang around
Why would I stay
I never change
I keep reading the same books
Till I know what they're about to say
And I call up all my friends once or twice a day
Even though we don't know what to say
And I haven't gone just yet
But they're trying to sell my books to scare me out
But I'm not leaving town
And do you mind?
No I don't mind
If they pay me back
Oh but if not well that's too bad
I'll just hang around
Wonder why I like it
Well I haven't got
Any other place to be
And here
Well it's not that bad
And I can pass the phone around
If it's nobody interesting
And they have been packing my stuff
But I haven't gone just yet
And they're trying to sell my books to scare me out
But I'm not leaving town
And do you mind?
No I don't mind
If they pay me back
Oh but if not well that's too bad
I'll just hang around
And all my friends have left town
Got jobs or simply went around
And I've been making drawings of the streets
Cause what's the use in leaving
When you can spend your time dreaming of the worst
And the best times that could be
And they have been packing my stuff
But I haven't gone just yet
And they're trying to sell my books to scare me out
But I'm not leaving town
And do you mind?
No I don't mind
If they pay me back
Oh but if not well that's too bad
I'll just hang around
Why would I stay
I never change
I keep reading the same books
Till I know what they're about to say
And I call up all my friends once or twice a day
Even though we don't know what to say
And I haven't gone just yet
But they're trying to sell my books to scare me out
But I'm not leaving town
And do you mind?
No I don't mind
If they pay me back
Oh but if not well that's too bad
I'll just hang around
