Benicia By The Bay lyrics

They`re so proud of this city`s history

Like an old war hero reveling in his faded glory

But the present day, that`s another story

The old buildings they`re so proud of are crumbling down

And the condos in the picturesque part of town

Are sinking, sinking into the bay



But that`s the way I like it

Don`t want a utopian society

Yeah, it`s far from perfect

It`s all fucked up and two-faced just like me



The quaint scenery can`t hide the fact

That it`s a cultureless wasteland

But they`re so proud of what they lack

They`re so proud... of what?

Proud of such a nice little suburbia

Still living in the shadow of the Zodiac Killer

Maybe it was the toxins in the water



Well you can`t beat the cheap rent

Who needs water or electricity?

We`re all far from perfect

And now we got our own hypocritical community



Yeah, raise a family

Hang out and watch T.V.

And go and feed the Grebes

Unt. Unt. Unt.
