Hometown Paroles

And I swear it was beautiful before they sent those airplanes
And I thought I would show them to you just like my dad did

Home town come tumbling down

When she came on that sunday
I took her home the long way
So she could see

And she asked when they made it
And would they ever change it
I said no way
Half of what you see and none of what you hear believe

And I told her I that they remind me of Motown, sixties, skinny ties,
What they thought the future looked like where the Jetsons lived.

Home town come tumbling down
And I stay off the expressway
Nothing to see there anyway
That view sucks now

But there was a time the Brooklyn traffic couldn't get me down

I swear it was beautiful I hope they build it tall again
Til then your imagination is all that you will have
