Rupert Holmes - Town Square lyrics

[Rupert Holmes - Town Square lyrics]

Riding on a midnight bus
And through the window
I read the signposts like
Pages in a storybook in the flare of a truck
On the white line trail
I search the roadside
For West Tuconia, for Cantown
And for Kellybrook hook Mountain, Tylerville
And the bridge to Razor Ridge and Jasper Hill

Strike a match for a smoke and
I look for the lake
They've drained and dried it
And built a foundry, a drive-in
And a Burger King in the flatland
Green once spread like a sheet
They've cleaned and cleared it
What are they thinking
Or don't they think of anything?
Hook Mountain, Tylerville
Where's the bridge to Razor
Ridge and Jasper Hill?
We had better draw the line and form a circle
Around the town square, the steeple
And the library
And for each village green making
Way for a road we'll block the highway
And say, "Enough now, enough now
Won't you let it be?"
Hook Mountain, Tylerville
Save the bridge to Razor
Ridge and Jasper Hill
