Circle Jerks - Firebaugh lyrics

Brown and white, enter the night

Opposite sides of the street

No one speaks, no one looks

Their paths shall never meet

An unsuspecting traveler

Stranded in the night

Trapped in a realm of existence

Everybody's right

A voice cries out "Hey Charlie Brown!"

Are you the next vato who's gonna go down?

Heads turn, we told you so

If your car breaks down

Don't take a tow to

[Chorus:]

Firebaugh, Firebaugh

A place where no one dreams

Where either race is human waste

It's here that silence screams

Firebaugh, Firebaugh

The outer limits near

Drinking beer's the pastime here

This place is filled with hate and fear

Cornfields die, custard things

See the boredom in their eyes

Low riders, okies look for romance

Is this the place where the blackbirds dance?

Three men one woman sit at the bar

She's the town whore, the village star

Who'll be the one to get up her dress?

Pass on by avoid this mess

[Chorus]

If by chance your car breaks down

Keep your ear close to the ground

You might end up on the wrong side of town

What can you do? They're plotting your mouth
