Nightmare Town

Meet me down by the pylons tonight Let's tear into the guts of this little nightmare town That holds us down And keeps us out of the light 'Cause I remember you dancin' Beneath the light of disco ball in the gym That night making love under plastic stars glued to the ceiling 'Til the sun let in You said, "My daddy's got a shotgun in the shed" "Why don't we blow 'em all away and keep this house all to ourselves?" And I know it was a joke but something was going through my head About the power of the gun and what I could do with it, hey Baby, let's burn it down I can't stand the sound of this nightmare town This nightmare town Meet me down by the pylons tonight Down by that river full of shopping carts Where the beauty ends And all the madness starts Because we met in the second grade Ah, baby, you were so well behaved And I was nothing but a dead end kid Causing trouble was all I did I'll bet those Hollywood lights are looking good right now Why don't we go for a ride? I could steal my brother's car and if we leave right now We can drive all through the night, alright Baby, let's burn it down I can't stand the sound of this nightmare town This nightmare Baby, let's burn it down I can't stand the sound of this nightmare town This nightmare town Baby, let's burn it down I can't stand the sound of this nightmare town This nightmare Baby, let's burn it down I can't stand the sound of this nightmare town This nightmare town This nightmare town
