Do you have to look away when you walk by the diner
Where the squad car stops for coffee
Don't you wish that you were any place else but here
And don't you feel kinda funny when a man-in suit says
"Man, do you know where I can get high?"
Don't you wish that you were any place else but here
Take a walk down any street that you choose
Yeh and you'll wind up with the Fairfax Street
Mid morning paranoia blues.
Do you grab a cigarette when a man in an unmarked
Plymouth pulls you over just to say "Hi".
Don't you wish that you were any place else but here
And do you fumble in your wallet when you're looking for your license
And he tells you not to talk with your mouth full
Don't you wish that you were any place else but here
Where the squad car stops for coffee
Don't you wish that you were any place else but here
And don't you feel kinda funny when a man-in suit says
"Man, do you know where I can get high?"
Don't you wish that you were any place else but here
Take a walk down any street that you choose
Yeh and you'll wind up with the Fairfax Street
Mid morning paranoia blues.

Don't you wish that you were any place else but here
