brought up as peasants
at the bottom of the hill
hobroken's only view
a mountaintop rubber plant
the factory whistle blows
twice every day
smokestacks make the skies black
so thick i could hardly see

i ain't gonna waste away
for the price of steady pay
townsfolk look like zombies
gotta break away

got no welcome mats
you leave no coming back
wasn't the first or last
to take the same old c___

this town no one leaves
this town no no one sleeps
so uptight no one breathes
this town ain't for me

don't give me no lip
'cause i quit the hometown
if that's all there is
keep it for yourself

i've had a lot
of steady jobs
i've had enough
another day's too much

gonna pack it up
'cause i'm city bound
catch the five fifteen out
going to the coast

got no welcome mats
you leave no coming back
wasn't the first or last
to take the same old c___

this town no one leaves
this town no no one sleeps
so uptight no one breathes
this town ain't for me

hobroken nightmare used to be a dream
hobroken nightmare gotta break free
