The Optimus Prime - Big Hicktown

We are living in a big hicktown
because that's the place where we were born
We're not dull, not hopeless
sometimes we're just bored or stressed

What the hell is wrong with this place?
Is that what they call the "human race"?
Hanging around, don't know what to do,
trash dressed in cramped shirts, make-up and shoes

An empty narrow minded historical center,
an upcoming dispensable mall to enter,
the pupils, the adults, a dozy temper
- somehow it's like this town is takin' a snooze

But we won't get the blues, we won't get the blues...

We are living in a big hicktown
because that's the place where we were born
We're not dull, not hopeless
sometimes we're just bored or stressed

If you live in this kind of places
you can't escape this weary shabby faces
but you shouldn't overrate our high words
don't seize your guns, your bats, knives or swords

We won't hang our heads, it would be a waste
this town, the region is a double edged fate:
the big hicktown created our minds and mates
- maybe someday it will wake up from its snooze

But we won't get the blues, we won't get the blues...

We are living in a big hicktown
because that's the place where we were born
We're not dull, not hopeless
sometimes we're just bored or stressed
