well it´s an ugly fashion town
and i don´t want to get you down
but it´s an ugly place to live

the boys and girls look so serene
in their professionally torn jeans
but their smiles are insincere

well it´s an ugly fashion town
and the people who mill around
seem to share a vacant stare
as they walk across the village square

there´s a marina and a mall
where you can see them on the pull
in their silken padded shirts

the chimneys bellow grisly smoke
and the freeways are choked
it´s such an ugly place to live

there´s a marina and a mall
where you can see them on the pull
in their floral pleated skirts

well it´s an ugly fashion town
and i don´t want to settle down
i´m getting the first train west
i can almost feel the sweet clean air
returning to my chest
