Not This Place


Can I just plainly state it?

I’ve been kind of frustrated

This town, I wanna move out

Stayin’ in one place isn’t what it’s about


Tryin’ on a new pair of clothes

Nice for a minute, next I’m sick of those

Don’t bother tryin’ to please me, it won’t last long

Just tell me how do I move on?


Been in the same place at the same time

For as long as I can remember since the last day of December

Drawing circles, going out of my mind

Ready to pack my bags and go, goodbye to each hello

I’m getting out of here and living

Oh, traveling and mingling

Passing by, observing and earning

In a better way, not this place


Old ornaments are still up all around

Where they were first built and found

Makes me think of the caveman days

And how we’re living in the caveman ways


Give me something new to look forward to

Let’s switch from Sprite to Mountain Dew

Change the shades and colors at least a bit

Don’t you just get tired of it?


Been in the same place at the same time

For as long as I can remember since the last day of December

Drawing circles, going out of my mind

Ready to pack my bags and go, goodbye to each hello

I’m getting out of here and living

Oh, traveling and mingling

Passing by, observing and earning

In a better way, not this place


Unchanged, let’s rearrange

An upside down view or sideways

Purple skies, rainbow stars

Rolling moons, floating cars

Can we pick up our feet and fly?

Man made the airplane, man reached the sky

And still we’re dancing the same style

Step one, step two, let’s twirl

Give it a whirl, let’s swirl

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh,

Ooh, ooh, ooh


Been in the same place at the same time

For as long as I can remember since the last day of December

Drawing circles, going out of my mind

Ready to pack my bags and go, goodbye to each hello

I’m getting out of here and living

Oh, traveling and mingling

Passing by, observing and earning

In a better way, not this place

(Repeat x1)


Can I just plainly state it?

I’ve been kind of frustrated

Give me something new

To look forward to
