lirik lagu swingin utters – taking the long way
i came upon a row of pretty houses
so still and secretive and nearly perfect
said to myself it may be worth it
thought to myself maybe you’ll be worthy
so i started to take the long way home
and in my mind i made the neighborhood my own
started to save but i just owed too much dough
ten odd years, down a different road
i’d left my city and i’d left my home
i found myself in that place again
some kind of pretty little accident
it made me feel sick of being
like i was old and convalescing
gave me reasons to regret
made me wanna forget
so i guess the gr-ss is always greener
where all the other homes are so much cleaner
the plumbing’s sound and the bills are no bother
the cars are fast and the weather’s a wonder
no, i’m never gonna take the long way home
i might stop to chew the scenery alone
but i won’t swallow it whole
