Lullaby

Here's a lullaby
For anyone who wants to fly
From their hometown where people drown
And where the townies die

This old library
Has thirty books and one dictionary
But that's OK, no one reads anyway
We all watch TV

So here's your lullaby
No, girl, don't cry
Just rest your head and go to bed
Your time will come to fly
Away
But never today
Just dream your life away
Sleep
La la la la la...

All the dogs will die
They just can't seem to stay alive
'Cause in this town our cop shoots 'em down
And we just let him go and sigh

Please, God, please
What happened to our dreams?
We're losing hope so we invest in dope
To feel our vacant feelings

So here's your lullaby
No, boy, don't cry
Just rest your head and go to bed
Your time will come to fly
Away
But never today
Just dream your life away
Sleep
La la la la la...
