Somerville
I'm sick of the cynical
I'm sick of the fashion show
The vapid and overblown someone someone tells me I ought to know
I wouldn't stay around if the money let me linger on 'til the end of December
And waste another year like a minute, trying to forget, 'cause I remember my home
I left there with bitter words
I'll go back with cap in hand, and launder the bed I made, hurtful things said, and pick up where I began
The penny lost its shine
Dirty ankles on the promenade in rubber flip-flop sandals
Give me back the rags, the neurotic and the sweet lament, 'cause I can't handle it
I'm gonna take a lover
Gonna take her back to Somerville
Show her around the neighborhood, re-case the place and settle down
Gonna take a lover
Gonna take her back to Somerville
Don't care if she's pretty as we leave Suck City
I'm sick of the fashion show
The vapid and overblown someone someone tells me I ought to know
I wouldn't stay around if the money let me linger on 'til the end of December
And waste another year like a minute, trying to forget, 'cause I remember my home
I left there with bitter words
I'll go back with cap in hand, and launder the bed I made, hurtful things said, and pick up where I began
The penny lost its shine
Dirty ankles on the promenade in rubber flip-flop sandals
Give me back the rags, the neurotic and the sweet lament, 'cause I can't handle it
I'm gonna take a lover
Gonna take her back to Somerville
Show her around the neighborhood, re-case the place and settle down
Gonna take a lover
Gonna take her back to Somerville
Don't care if she's pretty as we leave Suck City
