"Smalltown"


	When you're growing up in a small town
	When you're growing up in a small town
	When you're growing up in a small town
	You say no one famous ever came from here

	When you're growing up in a small town
	and you're having a nervous breakdown
	and you think that you'll never escape it
	Yourself or the place that you live

	Where did Picasso come from
	There's no Michelangelo coming from Pittsburgh
	If art is the tip of the iceberg
	I'm the part sinking below

	When you're growing up in a small town
	Bad skin, bad eyes, gay and fatty
	People look at you funny
	When you're in a small town

	My father worked in construction
	It's not something for which I'm suited
	Oh, what is something for which you are suited?
	Getting out of here

	I hate being odd in a small town
	If they stare let them stare in New York City
	As this pink eyed painting albino
	How far can my fantasy go ?

	I'm no Dali coming from Pittsburgh
	No adorable lisping Capote
	My hero, oh, do you think I could meet him?
	I'd camp out at his front door

	There is only one good thing about small town
	There is only one good use for a small town
	There is only one good thing about small town
	You know that you want to get out

	When you're growing up in a small town
	You know you'll grow down in a small town
	There is only one good use for a small town
	
	You hate it and you'll know you have to leave
