Gin Blossoms - Mega Pawn King lyrics

We need to practice
Take my city's back streets
There's plenty to see there only if you care
Behind the thrifts and the mega pawn king
Behind the checks cashed here

If you're hungry you're in
Luck since the border's wide open
If you're tired there's a park only
If you dare
Behind the thrifts and the mega pawn king
Behind the checks cashed here

Your declining neighborhood looks beautiful
The way it should wouldn't change it at all
Wouldn't make it look new oh

There's the LDS church built in 1927
I once knew someone who was banned from there
Behind the thrifts and the
Shadeless day laborer
Behind the checks cashed here

So come along with me 'cause you'll
Miss it on your own
Graffiti art competes with muralists
Behind the thrifts and the mega pawn king
Where everything's ninety-nine cents (Hey)

Your declining neighborhood looks beautiful
The way it should
Wouldn't change you at all
Wouldn't make you brand new
The metal cross on the wooden door
Protects the home not me anymore
I always look to see if it's been moved

Your declining neighborhood
Your declining neighborhood

Don't forget it, but don't relive it
Don't get sucked back pulling
Out of this town
There are places I won't revisit
If I don't miss 'em
They're fine without me around (Hey)

Don't forget it, don't relive it
Don't remember, don't regret it
There are places I won't revisit around
Don't resist it, don't resent it
Don't remember, don't forget it
There are places that are
Fine without me around
(And round and round and round, Woo)
