For about four years I’ve hated this town Yeah, so much I just wanna get out Since graduation was long ago Please somebody get me out of this hole Cause I don’t want to get stuck in here When I am thirty-four just talkin' 'bout high school years No I don’t wanna be there, and feel so stuck right here Back and forth, side to side, oh my dear
My foot to the floor I will drive to the place Where I can kick it with friends through the night A place we'll talk about now and the past what the future holds Hanging out with not much to do Just aimless with each other - is what we do
Cause this ain’t where it’s at My friends will second that And I gotta admit sometimes it’s pretty sad But it's like were our own brat pack We're always kickin back nobody can take that And that is that it’s like its all we have
Whoa! Whoa!
Come on say 'Oh! Oh! Get on the floor! Dance 'till you got no more!' I know its there somewhere Don’t worry I'll be there to rock the party all night To rock it 'til there's light our fists in the air Fightin' the good fight Cause' we were singing along to Peter Gabriel's "sledgehammer" song You know it’s clear that tonight we belong in this place So I step back to reflect in this town I hate And at least just for a second I think I might stay
This ain’t where it’s at My friends will second that And I gotta admit sometimes it’s pretty sad But it's like were our own brat pack We're always kickin back nobody can take that And that is that
So I'll run away to the hopes that I have But still I fall asleep in the arms of my past And when I wake so helpless and thinking of that I just lay back down
Again, everyday
So maybe later today I'll know What I will do with my life as I know it Maybe for now I'll drive back to that place where I belong And hope to God it hasn’t changed
This ain’t where it’s at My friends will second that And I gotta admit sometimes it’s pretty sad But it's like were our own brat pack were always kickin back Nobody can take that no, no, no
This ain’t where it’s at My friends will second that And I gotta admit sometimes it’s pretty sad But it's like were our own brat pack were always kickin' back Nobody can take that That is that it’s like its all we have
