LYRICS

for about four years i've hated this town

just 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 34 just talking about high school years

no i don't want to be there

cause i feel so stuck right here

back and fourth, side to side

oh my dear

my foot to the floor i will drive to the place where i will kick it with friends through the night

a place to talk about now and the past what the future holds

hanging out with not much to do

just aimless with each other, its what we do

CHORUS

cause this aint' where its at

my friends will second that

and i've got to admit... sometimes it's pretty sad

but its' like we're our own brat pack

we're always kickin' back

nobody can take that

that is that

it's like it's all we have

whoaaa whooaaa oh yeah

i said oh oh get on the floor

dance til you've got no more

i know it's there somewhere

don't worry i'll be there

to rock the party all night

to dance until it's light

our fists in the air fighting the good fight

and we were singing along to peter gabriel's sledgehammer song

and now it's clear that tonight we belong in this place

so i stand back and reflect in this town that i hate

at least for just a second

i think i might stay

REPEAT CHORUS

so i run away with the hopes that i have

that still i fall asleep in the arms of my past

and when i wake so helpless and dreaming of that

just like i do oh... again

every day

so maybe later today i'll know

what i will do with my life as i know it

maybe from now on i'll drive back to that place where i belong and

hope to god it hasn't changed
