Outskirts a town
( Funny -- ain't it ? )

What we're tryin to escape
And what we're tryin to save

( And our reasons )

••

** babe !
Don't ya know ?

Tell me true
What's hurtin ya so ?

We got a long way to go
And best be free

Of whatever is keepin us down

••

Outskirts a town
( same ole highway )

Though
A lot more police men
Tryin to stop any --- changin

Tellin us we're already quite free

SHOW US HOW SO -- we say

They say
HEY -- BEST STOP COMPLAININ

WE GOT WORSE PLACES YOU COULD BE

••

Outskirts a town

Escape!

What's there to save !

--

We gotta get free

Of anything keepin us down
