Me Myself & Irene movie - Barrytown lyrics

rate me

Song by Ben Folds Five<br /><br>

I'm not one to look behind I know that times must change<br>

But over there in Barrytown they do things very strange<br>

And though you're not my enemy <br>

I like things like they used to be<br>

And though you'd like some company <br>

I'm standing by myself<br>

Go play with someone else<br>

I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown<br>

<br>

Don't believe I'm taken in by stories I have heard <br>

I just read the Daily News and swear by every word <br>

And don't think that I'm out of line <br>

For speaking out for what is mine <br>

I'd like to see you do just fine<br>

But look at what you wear <br>

And the way you cut your hair <br>

<br>

I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown<br>

<br>

In the beginning we recall that the word was hurled <br>

Barrytown people got to be from another world<br>

<br>

Leave me or I'll be just like the others you will meet <br>

They won't act as kindly if they see you on the street <br>

And don't you scream or make a shout <br>

It's nothing you can do about <br>

It was there where you came out <br>

It's a special lack of grace <br>

I can see it in your face <br>

<br>

I can see by what you carry that you come from Barrytown <br>

<br>
