Boring Town ’23 - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

Just talked to this girl used to live here on my street

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 some day he would go

She just got a new job, but she doubts it will last

So let's take a drink and never think, yeah, here's to the past

She said it's so funny how life runs out so fast

It's just another wasted day

A boring life in a boring town with the same old crowd

And I used to say that I'd never stay, but I'm rotting here today

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 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 runs 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

And remember when they looked through you

And then looked 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

And I used to say that I'd never stay, but I'm rotting here today

With that same old crowd that's always been around

And I always thought that, and I always thought that

And I always thought I'd be the first to go

A boring life, a boring town
