Shytown Lyrics
Crossing my eyes and making
Faces
I hope we don't go too many
Places
Cause then before I go to sleep
I'll wonder exactly what she
Means when
When she says I am too shy
Finding a way to stay inside
She always asks me are you
Having a good time
Come in here where the band is
Playing
Are you coming along or are
You staying
I'm fine-quit asking
It's the hardest thing to meet
Her friends
I always feel like I have to
Entertain them
All alone with the jokes I forget
I'm someone's boyfriends and a
TV set
I live in Shytown
Faces
I hope we don't go too many
Places
Cause then before I go to sleep
I'll wonder exactly what she
Means when
When she says I am too shy
Finding a way to stay inside
She always asks me are you
Having a good time
Come in here where the band is
Playing
Are you coming along or are
You staying
I'm fine-quit asking
Her friends
I always feel like I have to
Entertain them
All alone with the jokes I forget
I'm someone's boyfriends and a
TV set
I live in Shytown

It's obviously about me. Longishly about me. About me. I don't understand how they know
