Versus - Underground

Underground by the NYC band Versus. From the 1998 album "2 Cents Plus Tax."

You're the king of the underground
Where the only sound
Is your hicktown failing heartbeat
and lots of crickets

So stake your trailer, bet your life
You've got a good home wife
I know she's out there waiting for you
without a clue

Yeah you gotta see your future through the window
Brave your future, leaving home again

We'll take you down to New York City
Where the grass is broken glass
And the girls are not that pretty
But we don't care

So sell your future, bet your past
Because it's not gonna last
I know you're out there waiting for me
But you're just stuck

Yeah you gotta throw your bad luck out the window
Brave your future, leaving home again (kick it)

You like the trouble they're in
Just give 'em cigarettes and they'll be your friends

But don't their bad advice
They just wanna cut you down to size

Stay inside your room for days
You're leaving
Wallow in a solipsistic haze
You're leaving
So won't you take my good advice
You're leaving
Get into your car and I'll be your eyes
You're leaving
You're leaving
You're leaving

You're leaving...... home.

Yeah you've gotta see your future through the window
Brave your future leaving home again
