Looking at your watch a third time
waiting in the station for the bus
Going to a place that s far,
so far away and if that s not enough
Going where nobody says hello,
they don t talk to anybody they don t know
You ll wind up in some factory
that s full time filth and nowhere left to go
Walk home to an empty house,
sit around all by yourself
I know it might sound strange, but I believe
You ll be coming back before too long
Don t go back to Rockville,
don t go back to Rockville,
don t go back to Rockville
And waste another year
(Verse 2, same as first)
(chorus)
It s not as though I really need you
If you were here I d only bleed you
But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and
That s not how it ought to be
Well I know it might sound strange, but I believe
You ll be coming back before too long
(chorus)
