card was declined
as you waited in line
at the grocery behind her house
didn't know why
but she started to cry
it's a shame we can't work this out
she don't even want to break
i don't even want to bend
tell me how do we survive inside this town
saving my dimes
and i'm almost on time
to catch a train heading south
miss it again at a quarter past ten
it's a long walk back to her couch
she don't even want to break
i don't even want to bend
tell me how do we begin to get on out
wait to get paid
for a couple of days
and my shoes are getting worn down
working at night and she started a fight about
how i never go out
she don't even want to break
i don't even want to bend
tell me how do we survive inside this town
