I hate what they did to my town so I moved to another town
I hate what they did to my town so I moved to another town
I thought the change would do me good, Cordelia understood
The ghosts were creeping in on me and all my friends
But the house where I grew up is not my home
Cordelia, elsewhere will I roam?
I hate what they did to my town so I moved to another town
I hate what they did to my town so I moved to another town
Goddamn I wanna be free. Cordelia fetch my wings
Trash Hats are on the trail of this lonesome whippoorwill
But the house where I live is not my home
Cordelia, elsewhere will I roam?
And the interlopers on the corner sing
“I wish this town was more like New Orleans”
I hate what they did to my town so I moved to another town
I hate what they did to my town so I moved to another town
This old house ain’t gonna haunt itself. From PDX to the AVL
The old folks bitch and moan “do not renovate my home”
But this house was meant to flip and fly
Cordelia, it’s time to say goodbye
I hate what they did to my town so I moved to another town
I hate what they did to my town so I moved to another town
