Lyrics: (The Kings of) Tiny Town
© 2023, Mark Belanger
Chorus
If you can't join them, then beat them
If you can't join them, then beat them
If you can't join them, then beat them
If you can't join them, then beat them
A1
The Kings of Tiny Town
They don't need you around
You're only in their way
I don't care, just let me play
A2
The Kings of Tiny Town
They wear a paper crown
Their streets are all one way
I don't care, just let me play
Bridge
They don't know
They can't see
They don't know that
This is nowhere
This is nowhere
This is nowhere to me
A3
The Kings of Tiny Town
You know their reign can't last
The Kings of Tiny Town
They have moved into the past
(Segue)
C1
You can call it preconception
You can call it prepossession
I don't care, just let me play
C2
You can call it cronyism
You can call it nepotism
I don't care, just let me play
(Transition back to verse)
A5
The Kings of Tiny Town
They'll try to keep you down
If you really want to play
To get somewhere, you must get away
A6
There's Kings in every town
All towns are Tiny Towns
If you plan to get around
Beware the Kings of Tiny Town
Beware the Kings of Tiny Town
Beware the Kings of Tiny Town
Bridge
