lirik lagu ben platt - how can i call this home?
[leo frank]
i go to bed at night
hoping when i wake
this will all be gone
like it was just a dream
and i’ll be home again
back again in brooklyn
back with people who look like i do
and talk like i do
and think like i do
but then, the sun rises in atlanta again
[leo frank]
these people make me tense
i live in fear they’ll start a conversation
these people make no sense
they talk and i just stare and shut my mouth
it’s like a foreign land
i didn’t understand
that being southern’s
not just being in the south
when i look out on all this
how can i call this home?
[parade cast]
la la la la in the land of cotton…
[leo frank]
these men belong in zoos
it’s like they never joined civilization
the jews are not like jews
i thought that jews were jews but i was wrong
i thought i would be fine
but four years down the line
with every word it’s very clear i don’t belong
i don’t cuss, i don’t drawl
so how can i call this home?
home calls and i’m free of the southern breeze
free of magnolia trees, and endless sunshine
[leo frank, parade cast & all]
evermore lives the dream (evermore lives the dream)
of atlanta
but not mine!
not mine!
we stand together
a yankee with a college education
in the great state of georgia!
who by his own design is trapped inside the land
that time forgot!
strong and proud!
i’m trapped inside this life
and trapped beside a wife
who would prefer that i say
“howdy!”, “not shalom!
well, i’m sorry, lucille
but i feel what i feel
and this place is surreal
so how can i call this
home!
