The parking lot beyond Oasis town
Down the street from the Mexican
Restaurant beyond the Auto Zone
And the place that's hawking payday loans
There's a K-Mart and a KFC
A fitness center and an Applebee's
Wells Fargo and a Taco John's
A good time bar to get your bad swerve on
In a town that's named for razor blades
All American but Chinese made
Folks workin' hard for shrinkin' pay
21st century USA
Out I-90 we might see you pass
We got coal and methane gas
We got jobs where the work is hard
And stores to max out your credit cards
In a town that ain't nowhere near
Just like every town everywhere
Folks workin' hard for shrinkin' pay
They say we have to hang on just a little bit longer
And a savior will come our way
We'll know Him by the neon sign
And the opulence He maintains
If Amazon can deliver salvation
I'll order it up on my phone
With Big Brother a-watching me always
Why must I always feel so alone?
