It's closing time at Shaggy John's Cafe
Life goes on
Here, all different kinds of people spend their afternoons
Dreaming on

Stranded here on planet earth
Refugees from a lost time
Washed up on the same shore
Or the same old bar
Trying to count the stars

(Look at the old man)

Still around after all these years
Still counting the rounds and cheers
Looks like he's comfortable here
In the same old town
In the same old town

Lights go down, the small town falls asleep
Safe and sound
Through the TV set, they travel all around the world
Safe at home
After all, who wants to risk
Getting lost in the jungle?
The old man in his living room
Seems quite amused
By the small-town blues

Waiting there for the ones who love it
Offering all the fruits within it
Maybe I'm too comfortable here
In the same old town
In the same old town

Waiting there for the ones who love it
Offering all the fruits within it
Maybe I'm too comfortable here
In the same old town
In the same old town
Forgotten town
Lonely town

Still around after all these years
Still counting the rounds and cheers
Looks like he's comfortable here
In the same old town
In the same old town
