Cabbage Town

 
All that blotter gonna twist up your mind
 
You can do it just not all the time
                 
Hiding in your room, you'll be feeling fine
  
Always manage to have something to sell
 
Talk on the telephone while painting your nails
                 
Little plastic bags and a digi scale

                                                    
All these hallways full of plastic kids
                               
All their jumping makes the CD skip

                             
I'm never telling what I find out
                                
I'm gonna love you like the New South
                                  
You drive me crazy with your foul mouth
                                      
Tell me you'll meet me down in Cabbage Town
                  
Head down to Cabbage Town


The way I see it we got plenty of time
It's gonna happen but just not overnight
Bring a pack of cards and a box of wine
Oh on the day when I flash that badge
Just try to think of the other half
It's hard living, when you're so matter-of-fact

But this city's full of lazy kids
Sweetie, someone's gotta steal this ship

I'm never telling what I find out
I'm gonna love you like the New South
You drive me crazy with your foul mouth
Come on and meet me down in Cabbage Town
Head down to Cabbage Town

Well it's just like old friends
To play remember when
But if you need my help, I'm in

I'm never telling what I find out
I'm gonna love you like the New South
You're talking crazy with your loud mouth
Come on and meet me down in Cabbage Town
Head down to Cabbage Town

I'm never telling what I find out
I'm gonna love you like the New South
You drive me crazy with your foul mouth
I'm gonna make it like a new sound
Head down to Cabbage Town
