‘This Must Be The Place’

Art

“Well just take a right where they’re going to build that new shopping mall

Go straight past where they’re going to put in the freeway

Take a left at what’s going to be the new sports center

And keep going until you hit the place where

They’re thinking of building that drive-in bank

You can’t miss it. And I said: ‘This must be the place.’” – Laurie Anderson
