A song about our chosen hometown Schenectady, N.Y., which we chose for absolutely no reason at all, but perhaps it's a lot like your hometown too. :)
My ode to Schenectady, New York, and the rise and fall of American manufacturing & the American middle class. -BeTh

Lyrics
Hometown (Reprise)
by BeTh isBell
Vonnegut can see my twisted future, from my front porch,
he wrote it down, he wrote it down,
Vonnegut can see my twisted future, from my front porch,
he wrote it down, in my hometown,
Thomas Edison invented the lightbulb, in my hometown,
we light one up, and burn it down,
And all my dreams have died in this city,
Schenectady! Schenectady!
The city that lights and hauls the world,
The city that lights and hauls the world,
The city that lights and hauls the world,
And all our crap to you!
Things they never change, they stay the same, in my hometown,
It’s burning down, to the ground (x2)
The world is tripping and I’m not getting any younger, so I light one up,
in my hometown, and burn it down
The world is tripping and I’m not getting any younger, so I light one up,
and my hometown is burning now.
