Lying on the floor watching posters on the wall
She does her homework with the record player on
Dreaming of a day she's cutting out of line
And she won't be home for dinner time
For now she's stuck in this dirty little town
But her family's all nice; she's got a room for her own
Her friends are happy when she says with a sigh
Let's hang out on Saturday night
"Those darn kids these days just buy the shit they're faced, why don't they make up their own mind and their parents will be proud to see them grow up to live their same old greedy lies"
"Well, that is life… "
Kicking at the door, scratching lines in the wall
Counting the days she's been waiting for the call
But no one's going to come to get her out of there
She's got her own plans, but they have better ones for her
For now she's stuck in this dirty little town
But her family's all nice; she's got a room for her own
Her friends are happy when she says with a sigh
Let's hang out on Saturday night
"Those darn kids these days just buy the shit they're faced, why don't they make up their own mind and their parents will be proud to see them grow up to live their same old greedy lies"
