Brasilia Crossed With Trenton Lyrics by Bob Mould

Brasilia Crossed With Trenton Lyrics

    I walk through the day
    Through the open fields
    I walk to my truck
    To my truck and drive away
    To the road
    Through the broken roads, trusty road
    I was headed for the road
    The road that runs that way

    And i, i see the train
    The trains don't run to brasilia
    I walked through the fields
    Through the fields to brasilia
    My ticket stub says i'm going
    I'm going to trenton

    When my friends stop by
    I try to impress them, no buildings over two stories high
    Except my house, oh my my, i see
    See crossed lattice work made out of brick
    I see buildings
    With laundry hanging out of the window
    Never in my wildest dreams would i think i'd see
    Brasilia crossed with trenton

    When you live in the middle of nowhere
    Your imagination runs away and wild
    You make games, i make games that i play most once a day
    I pretend brasilia turned to trenton
    Brasilia crossed with trenton

    Department store
    The only place that i buy clothes anymore
    I used to be a big shopper 'round the world
    Big credit cards, they don't matter anymore
    'cause i can't pay any money that i owe
    To these cards anymore
    They don't take these things down at the bank
    They just take money

    Imagine yourself in the middle of nowhere
    Imagination runs away for a while
    I play games about once a day or so
    I don't know, that's where i'd rather go
    Brasilia crossed with trenton

    I wish that i could tell my story
    To all the people that listened to my story long ago
    I knew that this would happen sooner or later
    That i'd get disillusioned with it all
    Just throw my hands up to the sky and say
    Oh lord, what happened, what happened
    To make things run this way

    Imagine yourself in the middle of nowhere
    Your imagination runs away for a while
    You learn to play games about once every day or so
    I walked to brasilia crossed with trenton
    Brasilia crossed with trenton
