Houses are spread out too far   Too many trees and too many cars   Everyone works or everyone hides   Too many birds in suburban skies   Too many burnouts, too many jocks   Middle class scumbags, think they're smart   They go to school and comb their hair   And always have the right clothes to wear      Suburbia      Go hangout at the Livingston Mall   Nothing to buy, too many stores   Too many joggers on the streets   Gonna run 'em over in my beat up car   Go for a walk through the center of town   Or hop in the car and cruise around   Mow the lawn, take out the trash   Go in mom's pocketbook and take her cash      Suburbia
