[Verse 1]
It was me, drove off the off-ramp
Of the sweetheart highway
It was me, I admit I had the map
This is what I gotta say

[Chorus]
We're in Bummed Out City
That's what the sign says
I plead your mercy and your pity
Is not life a mirror maze?

[Verse 2]
The hardware store is never open
Until the quarter of the moon
Let's leave town before the rodeo
Rides in with the typhoon

[Chorus]
We're in Bummed Out City
So come on, let's operate
Let's open a disc brake parlor
No, it never is too late

[Post-Chorus]
Before you know it, you'll be in Bummed Out City
In a cloud of dust and rust
And all the dogs biting on your exhaust pipe
Even they gonna show you trust
[Verse 3]
And it was me, drove off the off-ramp
Of the sweetheart highway
It was me, I admit I had the map
This is what I gotta say

[Chorus]
We're in Bummed Out City
That's what the sign says
I plead your mercy and your pity
Is not life a mirror maze?
We're in Bummed Out City
That's what the sign says
I plead your mercy and your pity
Is not life a mirror maze?
We're in Bummed Out City
That's what the sign says
I plead your mercy and your pity
Is not life a mirror maze?

[Outro]
We're in Bummed Out City
I plead your mercy and your pity
Is not life a mirror maze?
