There's a freeway where we played football in the fields Apartments on the pitch at Highbury There's a shed called Deer Creek Of which my one critique Is there's no creek now and it's all deer-free There's a Walgreens where there was no wall, just greenery There's a theme park in a palace in Tennessee That tree there is a pylon But some things you can rely on There's a Starbucks where the Starbucks used to be There's a Starbucks where the Starbucks used to be There's a Starbucks where the Starbucks used to be There's a hard luck story everywhere you look But oh the glory! There's a Starbucks where the Starbucks used to be There's a stadium where we used to drink at Freddie's For a team that no one likes or wants or needs Said they'd revitalize the place There's a million parking spaces Maybe bedrooms for the homeless refugees There's a chain store where mom and pop once prospered They're divorced now and they live in penury Kids grown up and moved away I hear that happens anyway There's a Starbucks where they live, I guarantee There's a Starbucks where the Starbucks used to be There's a Starbucks where the Starbucks used to be There's a hard luck story everywhere you look But oh the glory! There's a Starbucks where the Starbucks used to be And I miss the old Starbucks Though the new one's just the same It's got coffee and CDs It's got the same name In fact, I wouldn't've even noticed If you hadn't told me There's a Starbucks where the Starbucks used to be
