Grumpytown by Speck Lyrics
He was a drifter
Drifting between towns
'Til he came to a place
Where they all had a frown
"Population: 2"
Said the sign out front
The city name
Obscured in grime and muck
With nothing to lose
The drifter went in
And started to feel
The weight of his sins
On the bleak, empty street
A woman did sit
Hot Topic T-shirt
And an ill-fitting clip
She cackled with boredom
As she looked up and down
She mumbled with glee
You'll never escape from
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
I hate you and life and mom, oh my God
The man was shocked
As white as a ghost
The woman was typing
To LiveJournal she posts
This is so unfair
I hate my life
I wish they were dead
So that I could escape from
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
I hate you and life and dad, oh my God
He tried to escape
But it was already too late
His fingers possessed
Had taken the bait
The last we did hear
From our ill-fated friend
Was ranting and banging
From his locked basement den
In Grumpytown
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
I hate you and life and mom
And dad and work and this is so unfair
Life sucks, goddamn, I have to do chores
Drifting between towns
'Til he came to a place
Where they all had a frown
"Population: 2"
Said the sign out front
The city name
Obscured in grime and muck
With nothing to lose
The drifter went in
And started to feel
The weight of his sins
On the bleak, empty street
A woman did sit
Hot Topic T-shirt
And an ill-fitting clip
She cackled with boredom
As she looked up and down
She mumbled with glee
You'll never escape from
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
I hate you and life and mom, oh my God
The man was shocked
As white as a ghost
The woman was typing
To LiveJournal she posts
This is so unfair
I hate my life
I wish they were dead
So that I could escape from
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
I hate you and life and dad, oh my God
He tried to escape
But it was already too late
His fingers possessed
Had taken the bait
The last we did hear
From our ill-fated friend
Was ranting and banging
From his locked basement den
In Grumpytown
Grumpytown
Grumpytown
I hate you and life and mom
And dad and work and this is so unfair
Life sucks, goddamn, I have to do chores
