City of Mud - The Dead Milkmen

Built ourselves a city and we made it out of mud

We dried it off this morning, out there in the desert sun

And we never do no working, just sit and watch TV

Well, I finally found a city, full of people just like me

Well, we’re gonna drag Bruce Springsteen

By his Axe through our streets

By the time we’re done

The Boss will look like a side of beef

We’ve got plans for other wankers

Who might come through our town

Y’know we’re going to rid the world

Of those Top-40 clowns

Then we’re going to buy some bombs

Just like the big boys have

So don’t call us losers

Or you might just make us mad

Built ourselves a city and we propped it up with wood

We were drunk when we made it

Hell, we did the best we could

And still we don’t do no working, just sit and watch TV

Well, I finally found a city, full of people just like me

Someone tried to build a health spa

But we quickly burned it down

'Cause we don’t want any healthy people

Ruining our town

Y’know, we used to have a K-Mart

We burnt that sucker too

'Cause they wouldn’t let you in

Without a shirt or shoes

And we never paved the roads

We just bought VCR’s

When you got good movies

Hell, you don’t need any cars

Built ourselves a city and we call it WiseGuyVille

And we made a few mistakes like putting children on the pill

And we never do no working 'cause we got cable TV

Hell, I finally found a city, full of people just like me

Someday we’ll have a new land from sea to shining sea

Someday we’ll have a country, full of people just like me
