Novacain Stain

[Verse 1]

When I can work out how it was

Then I'll tell you

TV stained my memories, yeah

I don't think it shows

Remember through sounds

Remember through smells

Remember through colors

Remember through towns

With fear and fascination

On what was here

And what's replacing them now

Interchange, plazas, and malls

And crowded chain restaurants

More housing developments go up

Named after the things they replace

So welcome to Minnow Brook

And welcome to Shady Space

And it all seems a little abrupt

No, I don't like this change of pace
