[00:36.38] I see the shapes,
[00:40.12] I remember from maps.
[00:44.94] I see the shoreline.
[00:49.10] I see the whitecaps.
[00:53.46] A baseball diamond, nice weather down there.
[01:01.68] I see the school and the houses where the kids are.
[01:11.07] Places to park by the factries and buildings.
[01:19.45] Restaunts and bar for later in the evening.
[01:27.73] Then we come to the farmlands, and the undeveloped areas.
[01:36.26] And i have learned how these things work together.
[01:45.38] I see the parkway that passes through them all.
[01:53.48] And i have learned how to look at these things and i say,
[02:02.56] I wouldn't live there if you paid me.
[02:11.29] I wouldn't live like that, no siree!
[02:20.09] I wouldn't do the things the way those people do.
[02:28.71] I wouldn't live there if you paid me to.
[02:37.27] I guess it's healthy, i guess the air is clean.
[02:46.07] I guess those people have fun with their neighbors and friends.
[02:54.87] Look at that kitchen and all of that food.
[03:03.46] Look at them eat it I guess it tastes real good.
[03:11.69] They grow it in the farmlands
[03:15.86] And they bring it to the stores
[03:20.41] They put it in the car trunk
[03:24.37] And they bring it back home
[03:27.24] And i say ...
[03:29.36] I wouldn't live there if you paid me.
[03:37.86] I wouldn't live like that, no siree!
[03:46.53] I wouldn't do the things the way those people do.
[03:55.53] I wouldn't live there if you paid me to.
[04:03.62] I'm tired of looking out the windows of the airplane
[04:12.14] I'm tired of travelling, i want to be somewhere.
[04:20.21] It's not even worth talking
[04:24.51] About those people down there.
[04:29.01] Goo goo ga ga ga
