    Lyrics
    Keep Austin Weird
    lyrics by Anders Rasmussen

    verse 1
    I saw a guy at Eeyores birthday
    wearing a sock as his costume
    I smelled a girl at Spamorama
    wearing spam as her perfume
    Leslie on Sixth and Congress
    has the best two legs in town
    Crazy Carl in front of Esthers
    Keeps Carnations spinnin round

    climb
    But Austin's lost the Armadillo,
    Liberty Lunch, and Hole in the Wall
    Here's what we need to tell those folks
    down at city hall

    Chorus
    We oughta Keep Austin Weird
    We oughta keep Austin strange
    There's things about this town
    That we never oughta change
    We oughta Keep Austin Weird
    Before we lose what we love
    If Austin keeps evolving
    It won't stay the way it was

    or you can do the last 4 lines this way too
    If Austin keeps evolving
    It won't stay the way it was
    We oughta Keep Austin Weird
    Before we lose what we love

    verse 2
    Austin still has hippy hollow
    and lights on Thirty Seventh Street
    we've got Sweet Sara on mount bonnell road
    serving beers over at dry creek
    And seven eight seven o four
    hasn't lost its eclectic charm
    We've all seen things at Barton springs
    We can only call bizarre

    climb repeat

    Chorus Repeat

    Bridge
    Austinites unite
    Together we are strong
    Let's protect our odd legacies
    or soon they'll all be gone

    Chorus Repeat
