Standard Of Living – Autumn In Amherst lyrics

It's autumn in Amherst and I'm wondering why
There's no leaves on the ground and not dark by five
It's dull on the East coast and that's why we choose rock and
Time sure flies when you're tossing clocks

In our town, we sit around
Watching movies and hanging out
In our town, we've imprinted our bodies into leather couches

It's autumn in Amherst and I'm wondering why
There's no leaves on the ground and not dark by five
It's dull on the East coast and that's why we choose rock and
Time sure flies when you're tossing clocks

Don't get me wrong

In our town, we watch the rain turn to leaves turning to snow
In our town, we choose strings and keys over desks and essays

Autumn will never change
The suburbs inside us will never go away
They won't go away

It's autumn in Amherst and I'm wondering why
There's no leaves on the ground and not dark by five
It's dull on the East coast and that's why we choose rock and
Time sure flies when you're tossing clocks

Don't get me wrong
We have our fun
Don't get me wrong
We have our fun
