Brown and white, enter the night   Opposite sides of the street   No one speaks, no one looks   Their paths shall never meet   An unsuspecting traveler   Stranded in the night   Trapped in a realm of existence   Everybody's right   A voice cries out "Hey Charlie Brown!"   Are you the next vato who's gonna go down?   Heads turn, we told you so   If your car breaks down   Don't take a tow to      [Chorus:]      Firebaugh, Firebaugh   A place where no one dreams   Where either race is human waste   It's here that silence screams   Firebaugh, Firebaugh   The outer limits near   Drinking beer's the pastime here   This place is filled with hate and fear      Cornfields die, custard things   See the boredom in their eyes   Low riders, okies look for romance   Is this the place where the blackbirds dance?   Three men one woman sit at the bar   She's the town whore, the village star   Who'll be the one to get up her dress?   Pass on by avoid this mess      [Chorus]      If by chance your car breaks down   Keep your ear close to the ground   You might end up on the wrong side of town   What can you do? They're plotting your mouth
