Dead Town Lyrics
[L. Hoffsten]
A little place where it's quiet
Stop at a five'n dime
He'll invite you for dinner:
A packet of crackers and a bottle of wine
Postman Bob's watching tv
Learning about romance and love
To get the nasty details
He listens to noise from the apartment above
Livin' in a dead town
Acting like it's near bed time
Livin' in a dead town
Where standing out's the worst of crimes
Considerate Dennis is working
Hard by the railroadtrack
But not even his mother
Knows that Dennis is a pyromaniac
Scandal Susie is dreaming

Livin' in a double life
A moviestar during night-time
But in the day she plays the part of the butcher's wife
Livin' in a dead town
Acting like it's near bed time
Livin' in a dead town
Where standing out's the worst of crimes
