“Stupidville” – by Traci Lords
Stupidville Lyrics
I’ve been running with the crazies my whole life
I’ve been pushing up the daisies; I’m still alright
I’ve been bullied into silence, inside out
I’ve been promising a diamond to myself…
I’m getting thicker in the skin but my tolerance is weak
I’ll pull the trigger and begin so the others can speak
I’ve got this sign; I’ve got this tag hanging on me
Wildflowers may be sown but they have enemies…
It’s a fire drill
Out in Stupidville
To stay against your will
Out in Stupidville, Stupidville, Stupidville, Stupidville…
The window to my soul is clean; It’s not dirty
Why should pretty girls be hated for what’s unholy?
Is she anonymous enough? Does she escape the cliche?
If she’s defined from where she’s born, will she be on display?
I can’t think; I can’t breathe
It’s a fire drill
Cause’ they’re rotten from the tree
Out in Stupidville
There’s a price you have to pay
To stay against your will
But the cruelty is free
Out in Stupidville, Stupidville, Stupidville, Stupidville…
