Dinner At Eight In The Suburbs Songtext

this is the proper place, but i'm growing older without grace
and all of the people sing contented with the urban routine
as the backdrop fell on my clothes in the evening
and the actresses left for the farewell party

and i left the timber line for oil slicks and parking fines
and i found that it's too late to renew the lease at 1138 Ellis.

all the punker kids need to home by seven
'cause there's dinner at eight in the suburbs with sister and father and mother
