Lyrics
Button Down Town
Did eye hear U mention Sum Thing a - bout Button Down Town ?
It must have gotten lost in The Wind
Was that a Lonely Bugle somewhere Far Off Playing
That Fun - E Olde Song again
Call it westwood junior , on a Burning Plane
Candy apple mustangs in a row
Im - mort - all like delusions way - sting non re - turning knights
Mor - gauging Sum Dream they’ll Never Own
Everybody seams so happy here in Button Down Town
Nearly every day of the year
Still it makes sum people nervous when the heat Gets Going
Violent Freedom serenading Endless Fear
We took our Weekend Rain Check – Out , And cashed it in Fore’ Goodz
Bending Time in Terra Cotta Land
Then we heard that Lonely Bugle Far Off Playing
Parting Strains across the desert sandz
It’s just like southwest stoneware , with a california glaze
When This Entity comes Dancing Inside
Trading knowledge , need , and pleasure fore’ your Tiny Bitz of Starlight
Momentz shared as payment for the ride
There really kind of quite here in Button Down Town
When the Fire Flies have buzzed themselves to bed
At that fun - e time of night , the Other Kind is Taking Over
And cackles Ghoulish Banter from The Grid
Hey wherz My Margarita , and that Magic Tile Fountain
Dancing bright and heavy under Yellow Sun
Not far A - Way another seen is All Wayz in the making
Brought to U by poverty , hopelessness , and guns
Itz So Nice two pass the time away in Button Down Town
Mirage against that Hungry Waiting Sky
And Wind U Here that Lonely Bugle Far Off Playing
Might Be Your Appointment with The Come Along Bye -- rico story
