I see the shapes

I remember from maps

I see the shoreline

I see the whitecaps

A baseball diamond

Nice weather down there

I see the school and

The houses where the kids are

Places to park by the factories

And buildings

Restaurants and bar for

Later in the evening

Then we come to the farmlands

And the undeveloped areas

And I have learned

How these things work together

I see the parkway

That passes through them all

And I have learned how to

Look at these things and I say

I wouldn't live there if you paid me

I wouldn't live like that no Siree

I wouldn't do the things

The way those people do

I wouldn't live there

If you paid me to

I guess it's healthy

I guess the air is clean

I guess those people

Have fun with their neighbors and friends

Look at that kitchen

And all of that food

Look at them eat it

I guess it tastes real good

They grow it in those farmlands

Then they bring it to the stores

They put it in the car trunk

And they bring it back home and I say

I wouldn't live there if you paid me

I wouldn't live like that no Siree

I wouldn't do the things

The way those people do

I wouldn't live there

If you paid me to

I'm tired of looking

Out the windows of the airplane

I am tired of traveling

I want to be somewhere

It's not even worth talking

About those people down there

Du du da da da
