If there`s a god,
he`s laughing at us
And our football team.
Effington could be a wonderful f`ing place
I can see it from the highway
And I`m wondering
Are they f`ing in their yards
f`ing in their cars
f`ing in the trailers and the backroads and the parking lots of Effington
Making my way to Normal, Illinois.
Maybe I should ditch this little white rental on the interstate
And start a new f`ing life...in effington
I could change my name, grow a beard, start a family
Or I could just keep moving on, moving on, moving on, moving on
Not stop `til I get to Normal.
I want to live in Effington
I want to die there too.
Please bury me in Effington
In Effington
In Effington
Oh
I`ve got this movie in my mind of Effington
And the soundtrack to it sounds like this
I want to live in Effington
I want to die there too.
Please bury me in Effington
In Effington
In Effington
Oh
If there`s a god,
he`s laughing at us
And our football team.
And then the people who live in Normal
Can buy the movies that I`ll make in Effinghton
That`s what normal people do
Normal people do it too
Normal people do it too
Normal people do it
People do it
People do it
People do it
I want to live in Effington
I want to die there to.
Please bury me in Effington
In Effington
