Hastings from Vomit Rock by Primate House

Do you want to hear all about the town I
The town that I grew up in?
There’s a river that you can’t swim in
And there are restaurants you can’t eat in.
But across the river there’s some cliffs
Look at them when you can’t wait to leave Hastings.

Hastings is perfect in the way it doesn’t satisfy
Kids are whining get me out of here.
But these kids tend to drop the history
In the cracks of the sidewalks.
And all the lazy Sundays
And all the stressed out weekdays.

I will go away and this place won’t change
I will go away and Hastings will stay the same.
I will go away and this place won’t change
I will go away and Hastings will stay the same.

Do you want to hear all about the town I
The town that I grew up in?
It’s democratic with these rich white kids
And all of their white kids problems.
Fabricated problems like grades and extra circulars
That are meaningless ‘cause they mean nothing to you.

I will go away and this place won’t change
I will go away and Hastings will stay the same.
I will go away and this place won’t change
I will go away and Hastings will stay the same.
