History of a Boring Town Songtext
von Less Than Jake

Just talked to this girl, used to live here on my street (woah)
After all these years you′re here and you remember me
She said her old boyfriend
Packed up and headed back east
But she always knew someday he would go
She just got a new job, and she doubts it will last (woah)
So, let's take a drink and never think, and here′s to the past (woah-oh-oh)
She says, "It's so funny how life burns out so fast"
It's just another wasted day

A boring life in a boring town
In the same old crowd (woah-oh-oh)
And I used to say that I′d never stay
But I′m rotting here today (woah-oh-oh)
With that same old crowd that's always been around
And I always thought I′d be the first to go

That same old crowd that drags me down
Another day in a boring town
That same old crowd that brings me down
A boring life in a boring town


Just talked to this girl who used to live here on my street
After all these years you're here
And it′s still just you and me
Sometimes, I can't believe after all these years
I just think I′ll never leave here
She said, "It's so funny how life burns out so fast"
Let's take another drink and here′s to the past

That same old crowd that drags me down
Another day in a boring town
That same old crowd that brings me down
A boring life in a boring town

I remember when they′d look through you
And they'd look past me
We were the ones they said would always leave
So, when you go, just think of me
Think of me

A boring life in a boring town
With the same old crowd (woah-oh-oh)
And I used to say that I′d never stay
But I'm rotting here today (woah-oh-oh)
With that same old crowd that′s always been around
And I always thought that
Yeah, and I always thought that
Yeah, and I always thought I'd be
With the first to go


A boring life
A boring town
A boring life
A boring town
A boring life
In a boring town
