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
