THE OUTSKIRTS OF FUN
My sister threw me out for the third time this year
I've gotten so used to it I didn't shed a single tear
There's not a man left who'd think of taking me in
So I'm heading out for a place I've never been
CHORUS:
Maybe I could've hitched a ride up to the city
But last year well that didn't work out for me
When you find there are no places left to run
It's high time for moving to the outskirts of fun
SOLO
Out here there's not a pretty boy to be found
And it seems they're no dance floors around
I met a lot of folks who don't know how to party
I'm gettin' it now 'bout how misery loves company
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE:
It was hard to admit how far I've fallen
But I found me a home on the outskirts of fun
SOLO
REPEAT CHORUS
Yes, I’ll be moving to the outskirts of fun
