lyrics
a room on the north side of town,
my castles have all fallen down.
promises made to a boy don't keep.
the wonderful things that once made me smile,
i've traded for this aluminum crown
in a room on the north side of town.
a car that could fit nineteen clowns
just drove itself into the ground.
a bag and a dollar, well pay no mind.
a boy and his dragon with billowed sails
i've traded for this cheap merry-go-round
in a room on the north side of town.
