Bettertown

(album: The Grand Garden - 2008)

I, I don't wanna break
I don't wanna take on the world
Cause the world isn't all that great
And I don't wanna care
I don't wanna care about your clothes
And your house and your diamond rings
So take me away

I, I don't wanna steam
Sometimes I wanna breathe
Cause the newspeople say that it's killing me
And I don't wanna bend
So I don't wanna know about the ghosts
And the dreams and the aliens
So take me away

I believe somewhere, somehow, we can work it out
If we'll turn this drifted battleship around
Then we'll free-float on steamboats, under purple clouds
With enough fuel to get back to Bettertown

I, I don't wanna see
I don't wanna see it
You friends and your skin and your family tree
And I don't wanna lose
So, I don't wanna choose
From the he-said and she-did and didn't-do
So take me away

I believe somewhere, somehow, we can work it out
If we'll turn this drifted battleship around
Then we'll free-float on steamboats, under purple clouds
With enough fuel to get back to Bettertown

And we'll be on our way
And it'll all be great
When we never question, never live like
People never change

I believe somewhere, somehow, we can work it out
If we'll turn this drifted battleship around
Then we'll free-float on steamboats, under purple clouds
With enough fuel to get back to Bettertown

We can work it out
If we'll turn this drifted battleship around
Then we'll free-float on steamboats, under purple clouds
With enough fuel to get back to Bettertown
