Yeah!
I was walking down the street the other day when a woman stopped me
She said, "Why is it you look so down in the mouth?"
And I told her
This is a burnt-out town
It's full of dirty looks
There's ashes on main street
And the mayor is cooking the books
Why, even my best friends are turning into crooks
Yeah, this is a burnt-out town
New emperor, same clothes
They're dancing on glass ceilings
While the filthy money flows
Yes, and here I am, stealing gas with a garden hose
Yeah!
Take that, honey!
This is a burnt-out town
The city fathers have come to blows
It's out of their realm of reality
The truth's indecent when exposed
Yeah, it's a burnt-out town
It's going down but no one knows
Yeah, it's a burnt-out town
Ain't dead but getting close
