This town is like a comic book
but the pages are stuck together
from being left out in the rain

Now the story don't make sense
But everything's still bright
Can't tell the beginning from the end

And heroes look like villains
And the bad guys look like friends
There's advertising everywhere

This town is like a comic book
but the pages are stuck together
from being left out in the rain

I'm going back inside
To draw up something new
I've got a page missing somewhere

I think the library flooded
And the books are on their own
Going somewhere downstream

And Reference has a date
With the plays of Oscar Wilde
Science and Technology tags along

Is the autobiography ending
Or has it just turned into fiction
The how-to section’s out to sea

I think the library flooded
And the books are on their own
Going somewhere else downstream

I'm going back inside
To draw up something new
I've got a page missing somewhere

Is this newsprint or paper
Magazine or pamphlet
Glossy or embossed

The bookmarks held a party
No dust jackets required
Appendixes were lost

I’m tired of rearranging
By genre, name or year
The stapler’s been tossed

Is this newsprint or paper
Magazine or pamphlet
Glossy or embossed

I'm going back inside
To draw up something new
I've got a page missing somewhere
