Less Than Jake - "History of a Boring Town"

Jun 26, 2005 01:20

Just talked to this girl,
used to live, yea, on my street.
After all these years you're here,
and you remember me.
She said her old boyfriend
packed up and headed back east.
But she always knew some day...
he would go.

She just got a new job
but she doubts it will last,
So let's take a drink and never think,
yeah here's to the past.
She said its so funny,
how life burns out so fast.
It's just another wasted day.

A boring life in a boring town
with the same old crowd.
And I used to say that I'd never stay
but I'm rotting here today.
With that same old crowd
thats always been around.
And I always thought I'd be
the first to go.

That same old crowd,
that drags me down.
Another day in a boring town.
That same old crap,
that brings me down.
A boring life in a boring town.

Just talked to this girl,
used to live, yea, on my street.
After all these years you're here,
and its still just you and me.
Sometimes I can't believe after all these years
I just think I'll never leave here.
She said it's so funny,
how life burns out so fast.
Let's take another drink,
and here's to the past.

That same old crowd,
that drags me down.
Another day in a boring town.
That same old crap,
that brings me down.
A boring life in a boring town.

And remember when they looked through you,
and then looked past me.
We were the ones they said would always leave.
So when you go, just think of me,
think of me.

A boring life in a boring town
with the same old crowd.
And I used to say i'd never stay
but I'm rotting here today.
With that same old crowd,
thats always been around.
And I always thought that...
yea how we always thought that..
and I always thought I'd be,
the first to go!

A boring life,
A boring town.
A boring life,
A boring town.
A boring life,
A boring town!
