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.
