lyrics

Banjo Town

In Banjo town the mayor is planting apples
In an orchard he cultivates behind town hall
They’re caramelized with fancy Cuban sugar
And displayed for all to see now at the Ball.

A bird who only sings upon the weekend
Though we’re told that she is capable of flight
On a road that’s often paved with silver arrows..
She flits between the darting folds of light

Chorus:
We never frown in Banjo town.
Don’t make a sound in Banjo town
What goes comes round In Banjo town
Don’t act the clown in banjo town.

A multitude of gasses have been harnessed
And they’re utilized by industry today
Our Sargent minds the workers while they gather
And with howling dogs he keeps them all at bay

Chorus:

There’s no protest when everyones indifferent.
And no solution to an issue never raised.
As long as Gimmy cracks the winecast on the fuse-guard.
The rest of us are hardly ever fazed.

Chorus:
