Up in a no where town
   Where there's no where to go but down
   Ariba en un pueblo
   Que no esta en nada
  
   Walkin' round in circles in the pouring rain
   Waitin' for ya luck to change
   The weather vane is spinning out of control wit no directional plane
   And that's a metaphor for u cause yo ya feelin' the same
   A shame ya didn't go to college get the G.E.D.
   Ya play the hoochie up at Hooters on the J.O.B.
   Complacency I see the boredom slip a tip in ya bra
   Yo what's happening?
   It's like ya flippin' burgers for Rob
  
   Ay yo u still got time to shine on
   U can decorate yo life any way that u like
   U still got time to shine on
   But u gotsta get out tonite!
  
   Up in a nowhere town
   Where there's nowhere to go but down
   And we're just kickin' around
   Where we swim and we sink and drown
  
   Ya teachers useta tell ya u were smarter than this
   They pinch ya booty -fake a smile and then u tease w/ a kiss
   Ya shift'll end at 1 a.m. and then u cruisin' the strip
   And u think u the shit but girl it gets old quick
   U flick a butt u know what's up
   I tell ya ass to elevate but u be all about the fantasy
   Ya future can wait
   So make sure you collect the money first
   Before u lie down in the bed
   Freeloadin' never pay ya folks no rent
   Ya hook up with some kid from down the block and hit the shower
   Sleepwalkin' thru ya role like Heather Graham in Austin Powers
   Yo I calls it like I sees it wanna front grown up?
   Now everybody in together now shut the fuck up
   Ay yo u still got time to shine on
   Heaven knows yo I'm feelin' yo fears
   U still got time to shine on
   But'cha gotsta get the hell out of here
  
   Up in a nowhere town
   Where there's nowhere to go but down
   And we're just kickin' around
   Where we swim and we sink & drown
  
   Standin' in the shadow up inside of ya room
   Wonder when the vibe had turned so blue yo it's the truth
   Ay yo sometimes u feel so small u wanna crawl in the womb
   The summertime it come and gone
   U said you'd move back in June
   So free yoself from the fears that surrounds u
   The tide might be high silly girl ain't gonna drown ya
   U wear your life preserver float into the silver lining
   And Bob Marley sing "Sun Is Shining"
   Ay yo u still got time to shine on
   U can decorate yo life anyway that u like
   U still got time to shine on
   But u gotsta get out tonite!
  
   Up in a nowhere town
   Where there's nowhere to go but down
   And we're just kickin' around
   Where we swim and we sink and drown
