lyrics

This city is so sleepy
its the sleepiest around
its so quiet
no one really makes a sound

not much crime to speak of
only petty little things
we've got this town under control
its the order law brings

I'm glad its safe for my family
and happy to do my job well
but sometimes I want some excitement
a story to tell

in the old days I was a hero
I locked bad people away
these days it seems like I've got no job at all
just don't tell city hall

this town never makes planet news
our own paper is boring to read
a story of the same escaped slog
has been the headline all week

chorus
