We just got back from Bilbao
It’s such a great little town
We ain’t got time for that now
We just got back from Bilbao
What a great little town
We ain’t got time for that now
I changed the details but the story’s based loosely
On a bunch of shit that really happened to me
Played up the parts where I look good, so sue me
Whatever I do, I always do it truly
You may not know that it’s all just an act
You can’t believe that the world is still flat
You tell the truth but you tell it slack
You told some lies but your account handles that
Uh-huh, uh-huh
We just got back from Paris
But it’s all Greek to me
Except s’il vous plaît and merci
Saw you at the park, it was just last Tuesday
It’s no big deal, kind of a slow news day
Walked by you slow but there was nothing you could say
Now show you the difference that having a clues make
See where it gets you, acting so sedated
It ain’t a shame and it ain’t no pity
What it is, is strangely fitting
Only one of us is going to see Bam City
Uh-huh, uh-huh
We just went to Tokyo
Heard Slyd on the radio
Nice work Ray, Arigatou
So won’t you take me to
Bam City
Won’t you take me on down
So won’t you take me to
Bam City
Won’t you take me on down
Bam City
Won’t you take me on down
So won’t you take me to
Bam City
Won’t you take me on down
Uh-huh
Won’t you take me to
Won’t you take me on down
Uh-huh
So won’t you take me to
Bam City
Bam City
Bam City
Uh-huh
Bam City
Bam
