Burnt Out Town |
| I was walking down the street the other day |
| A woman stopped me |
| She said: why are you looking so down in the mouth? |
| And I told her |
| This is a burnt out town |
| It’s full of dirty looks |
| There’s ashes on Main Street |
| And the mayor is cooking the books |
| Even my best friends |
| Are turning into crooks |
| Yeah this is the burnt out town |
| New Emperor, same clothes |
| They dancing on glass ceilings |
| While the filthy money flows |
| Yes and here I am stealing gas, with a garden hose |
| Yeah! |
| Take that, honey! |
| This is a burnt out town |
| The city fathers have come to blows |
| It’s out of their realm of reality |
| The truth’s indecent when exposed |
| Yeah, it’s the burnt out town |
| It’s going down but no one knows |
| Yeah, it’s the burnt out town |
| Ain’t dead but getting close |
