Lyrics Fountains of Wayne

Fountains of Wayne

Amity Gardens

Angel broke her wing

Oh, you poor thing

The hum of the motor gave way to

The tick tick ticking of the clock

And the rattle of springs

The Buick's in the drive

It's good to be alive

And if you knew now what you knew then

You wouldn't want to go home

Wouldn't want to go

If you knew now what you knew then

You wouldn't want to go to Amity Gardens again

It isn't very much, but

for now it's home

A room in the shadow of a funny-looking man

On the phone to the bank about a default loan

I thank you very much

Ta ta we'll be in touch

And if you knew now what you knew then

You wouldn't want to go home

Wouldn't want to go

If you knew now what you knew then

You wouldn't want to go to Amity Gardens again

Where you came from

And act like you tried

Cause somethings are better kept

Deep down inside

But you'rs not driving

You're along for the ride

Just checking out the scene

And taking in the green
