Modbury Songtext
von The Nerverackers

Listen to what he has to say
Though it′s kinda hard to miss
Out here teaching the new dog old tricks
Take the back door
I'll distract her
He′s starting up his father's SUV

Oh, what a waste
How you've broken your bones
To get your words across
Somehow there′s nowhere else you′d rather be
Ain't no damn four wheels in sight
But I′m glad I am where I'm at
And everybody′s got a home and I reckon I've found mine


If it were up to me, I would′ve never left so soon
If it were up to me, I would've never left so soon
If it were up to me, I would've stayed in Modbury
If it were up to me, I would′ve stayed in Modbury

Funny how it all came about
And oh, my consciousness runs back
My grandma told me, "Watch each other′s six
You're gonna thank me later when your days get numbered"

But I don′t wanna be here
All due respect's down the drain
Even the cloud′s reminding me I mean so much more
In this homestead of regret
Tossin' my best years instead
And every second of my life
I wish I was somewhere else

If it were up to me, I probably would′ve left sooner
If it were up to me, I probably would've left sooner
If it were up to me, I don't wanna be in Modbury
If it were up to me, I don′t wanna be in Modbury
