Change On a Plain

This small town With all your idiosyncrasies Change is already here What's a small town to do? Urban sprawl is gonna get ya What are you going to do When all the small town charm Has been sold out of you? No more vast corn strips Instead it's, "Welcome to Wal-Mart!" No more open airstrips The next problem, "Where to put another Starbucks?"
