Текст песни: Big Dumb Town + перевод

Now when the city was in flame you were on the phone

Sellin' fire hoses at a premium loan

Yeah the bankers all smile but when you pass they frown

You’re just a little too smart for a big dumb town

Now we seen you drivin' down the boulevard

You throw that trash but not in your backyard

But like Newton and the apple what goes up comes down

You’re still a little too smart for a big dumb town

We’ll all applaud when you break on through

«He's a genius, boys, but then we always knew…»

Yeah, lofty possibilities, you never had a doubt

We’d all scream from the bleachers when you’d always strike out

But now you’re way out in front and you look glory bound

You’re just a little too smart for a big dumb town

Now when the world is over, clocks run outta wind

Somebody will scrape through the ruins and find

A little picture of you and in a file they found

Sayin' just a little too smart for a big dumb town

Now you speak so soft but in your heart you’re cold

In a tower of glass you’ve got a mountain of gold

Yeah you talk real sharp but we’ll soon cut you down

You’re still a little too smart for a big dumb town
