Beyond the Outskirts

Oh I lie here staring at the ceiling

And I wonder what's happening outside

Oh I know you've got the same blank feeling

You don't have to tell me I'm right

Beyond the outskirts, come with us

We're small town dreaming

We're birds on a wire

Beyond the outskirts

Come with us

We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Oh well we could sit here by the chain link fence

And talk for hours about Saturday

Oh well I know it makes no difference

To anything much anyway

Beyond the outskirts, come with us

We're small town dreaming

We're birds on a wire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us

We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us

We're small town dreaming

We're birds on a wire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us

We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us

We're small town dreaming

We're birds on a wire

Beyond the outskirts, come with us

We'll jump out of the page and into the fire

Oh I lie here staring at the ceiling

And I wonder what's happening outside

Oh I know you've got the same blank feeling

I wonder where you are tonight
