Suburbia Songtext
von Schleprock

Side streets and the summer heat
The wolves are fast and the boredom breeds
Latchkey, you gotta come clean
Mission Impossible at 17
As the perfect world turns
Major malfunction in the heart of the concern
Another no name on the failure freeway
Who′s to blame? Mother says it's a phase

Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain′t right
Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain't right
Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain't right
No, it ain′t right


Dead ends scream a teenage warning
Opportunity′s not even knocking
Learn to drown if you can't swim
Drop out if you can′t drop in
And when lessons all get learned
The dysfunctional discouraged voices go unheard
Another closed door means more losers
The desperate youth stumbles the avenue

Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain't right
Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain′t right
Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain't right
Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain′t right
No, it ain't right

Nowhere to go and nothing to do tonight
Nowhere to go and nothing to do
Yeah, nothing to do tonight

Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain't right
Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain′t right
Somewhere down in Suburbia, it ain′t right
No, it ain't right (No, it ain′t right)

Dysfunctional, unintentional
My mental whirls cycle
It spins around you, comes back to you
There's nothing nobody really wants to do
All the world′s flashing lights
All the street's demise
Down in Suburbia
