Lyrics
I'm a backpack boy
I'm a backpack boy
I'm leaving this town
With the local toys
And the Chelsea girls
And the Motown boys
I'm breaking out
Yeah I'm making this choice
I'm an indie boy
Depending on the road
I'm riding my bike
In this shitty town
I'm going to break the code
I'm getting out of town
I've got lots to give
But we're out of time
Cause I'm not going home
No I'm not going to go back home
And that's not your call to make
Cause I'm not going home
No I'm not going to go back home
And that's not your call to make
I'm a backpack boy
I'm a backpack boy
And the K-punk girls
And the Dischord boys
All wasting time in a beautiful lie
I'm an indie boy and I'm losing ground
Leaving town was a bad bad choice
Do I need to grow up
Will I lose my voice
Like the Sub Pop girls and the Teenbeat boys
Oh we're back on track
Always bring the noise
Cause I'm not going home
No I'm not going to go back home
And that's not your call to make
Cause I'm not going home
No I'm not going to go back home
And that's not your call to make
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
You don't want go back
But you need to go back
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
You don't want go back
But you need to go back
Cause I'm not going home
No I'm not going to go back home
And that's not your call to make
