Franny came home tonight
On a train ride to the comforts of a former home
To try and take a break, find out what went "wrong."
Well it's a con and it's that thing called "america,"
It's that cold, cruel academic drone
It's how they've got you trying to find what is you're searching for...
If you'd take my advice, don't be the one that's fooled
It's not a competent world
Say can't you see how they've got you spun around and around
But it's not a competent world. don't be the one that's fooled
It's your right not to belong. your badge of honor
Franny came home. franny came home
Franny came home tonight
And I think you ought to think on coming on back too
Because you, you know that you were always one of the smarter ones
They took you off and stuck you to the side
Where they could teach you convoluted explanations why
Till they convinced you what they got was what it was you were searching for
(but it wasn't.)
