Paris of the 80's

from Awkward Age by Ron Beaudet

about

This song is about how my dad was telling me how Worcester used to be like downtown Boston back in the day. I missed out on all the fun/cool things that the city used to offer. Great music scene and being safe mainly. The city is trying to bring it back with outdoor shops or something in the middle of the city. Paris of the 80's is the citys nickname, although I don't think many people know it. And apparently Worcester has its own accent? I can't hear it besides all the obviously fake ones.

lyrics

This city used to be so cool
Now it's shitty and people are cruel
There's nothing to do
Why can't I be like you?
I gotta make my own fun around here
Some parts are good, the rest is bad
God I'd give anything to live like you Dad

Starting something new
I don't wanna, I have to
This music is what defines me
What ever happened to that old scene?
It used to be good now its driving me crazy
Worcester has an accent?
Would you mind showing me?
I beg to differ Paris of the 80's

We are long due for a change
We are new, coming of age
