09 City With Two Street Lights

Getting sick of being one of the crowd
In a postcard-picture, one horse town
I think it’s time to leave
I really do think it’s time to leave

Soundtracks playing for every situation
The kids are getting older and the neighborhood’s changing
It feels just like you left
But you know you never really did

And I think it’s time
That you left the city
With two street lights
Cause workin’ nine to five gets old
And your friends have gone
I think it’s time
You said goodbye
Like everybody else did

And Howard walks these streets alone
They said that he lost himself in ’Nam
Came home they said it was his fault
Now he’s buyin’ kids alcohol

And we been talkin’ we been drinkin’ we been thinkin’
Of a way to get out, a way to get out Of this one horse town, you see
You just get married and you never leave

And I think it’s time
That you left the city
With two street lights
Cause workin’ nine to five gets old
And your friends have gone
I think it’s time
You said goodbye
Like everybody else did

(I think it’s time)
(You said goodbye)

And I think it’s time
That you left the city
With two street lights
Cause workin’ nine to five gets old
And your friends have gone
I think it’s time
You said goodbye

And I think it’s time
That you left the city
With two street lights
Cause workin’ nine to five gets old
And your friends have gone
I think it’s time
You said goodbye
Like everybody else did
