Bowling for Soup rebuttal

Grady SizemoreBowling for Soup gave us the song "Come Back to Texas." It's a major mistake. Now it's time to come back to Cleveland.
She said she needed some time
I think it was a line
Because she went to Dallas
Yeah, her name is Alice
And she worked at the bank

There's nothing wrong with Texas
Except for Bush and the dust
There's a River Walk
And to see the Spurs play is [gack!] a plus

So when you've seen all that
And when life goes to being flat
Cuyahoga County will be right here waiting for you...

[Chorus]
Come back to Cleveland
It's still God's Country though you went away
Before you get an accent
And lose out on all the Buckeye State
Columbus is just a bit down the road
And the Buckeyes are big this year
Besides there just ain't no pierogies south of here anyway

I know she made a mistake
It's just that easy to make
She went to make a deposit
Then she cleaned out her closet
But I'll sit here and wait
For her to come back home (I'd wish you come back home)
It shouldn't take very long (so long so long)
I bet she misses Lake Erie
And the Cleveland Orchestra, I can't be wrong

So when you've seen all that
And when life goes to being flat
Cuyahoga County will be right here waiting for you...

Come back to Cleveland
It's still God's Country though you went away
I bet you missed your exit
Drove accidentally toward the Lone Star State
Columbus is just a bit down the road
And the Buckeyes are big this year
Besides there just ain't no pierogies south of here anyway

Drew Carey wants you back
Grady Sizemore wants you back
NASA wants you back
And LeBron James wants you back
The Rock Hall wants you back
Emerald Necklace wants you back

I got a great big feeling
Her move's now left her reeling
And the whole state's calling her...

[repeat Chorus...]

[repeat Chorus again...]

Besides there just ain't no pierogies south of here anyway
Besides there just ain't no pierogies south of here anyway
Besides there just ain't no pierogies south of here anyway
