"Rochester made" that means "quality" With we will all agree Rochester, take me there! It's our city where I want to be!

Yeah, every window is a mirror Yeah, yeah, yeah

On an elliptical pedaling Extra life with nowhere to be Counting distance and calories Trying to bring back those youthful knees

This is Mayor Tom Ryan, introducing you to the official 1984 sesquicentennial song Rochester has a unique and varied cultural history So what better way to celebrate it than by listening to the music written, published, and performed by Rochesterians

My, the walls kept beating, oh, the days repeating Oh, my the walls kept beating, oh, the days repeating

Oh, what an engagement ring (splendor) You lean in as you’re puckering And I’m not sure what those carats mean (mean)

It's coming apart It's coming apart

It feels It feels like a lie

There's something lurking in the back of my mind And lately I feel it sliding into the light

With my eyes to the south And my brain up in space With my nervous looks around I'm a step out of sync

Tonight I think I might explode, yeah Nothing's right, nothing's right Comfort me until the sun arrives

I want to feel the warmth of the summer I want to know just why I love her

Oh this market needs a miracle Yeah we’re gonna need a miracle Jesus Christ is back again, 2 for 1 on fish and bread At the Olive Garden tonight

Hey kid, look up, can you believe?

I saw you down, in the background Moving your mouth, I see him I say "get out!"

Last idea I had got swallowed by a black hole I could cure cancer but they'd give the prize to some asshole

Sometimes those highest highs will leave you bored Sometimes the English country side remembers war

A drink, make it ice cold A headache, but for tomorrow

I want to touch you but I’m scared I really love you though I swear

But I'm in town for the day again You tell me how your spouse has been I'm in town, but my head is not

Yeah, it all went wrong Haven't seen him in so long

Far beyond, we come from a distant land We're not like you, you'd never understand

I liked it better than before! I gave it ten, a perfect score!

We can, escape now, escape now, escape now We can, escape now, escape now, escape now

I think I’m over all the hyperbolic chambers that sucked me in I’m no longer accepting feedback from strangers, it’s just too grim

So feel those feelings that you used to have Feel those feelings again or at least pretend

Black is white and day is night no logic here, you do not decide your will will not be done

Cut to a word from our sponsors I sit down at the desk Took so long to lose a dimension But I’m here for the hour

There's a muffled sound I hear When the tires stop it's clear

Nobody's gonna hit your head Nobody's gonna wish you're dead

You're amazing and beautiful But it's an age made for the stupid and numb

I had another nightmare Covered in sweat and unprepared

Think Think for a moment Just don't analyze Yeah, the smartest folks are the saddest I know

Slip fast from focus Spotlights won't notice My darkest totem If you could help me out, you could help me out

There’s a disc above me, it floats through the air It guides me to safety and lights my affairs

Mixing elixirs and alchemy Trying to turn back maturity

Feeling the hourglass running out Yeah, you ask me how you’re supposed to feel right now But I don’t know what I should tell you

Every place, every day, there’s bound to be some kind of trouble Everywhere, every day, waiting on the next little bubble

The world's gone crazy it's on something lately

My heart looked ugly, lying in a sunbeam My heart looked ugly, exposed by a sunbeam

I'm searching for the difference between The difference, the difference, the difference, the difference

Is there anybody here, man, it'd just be nice to know

Tonight I think I might explode, yeah Nothing's right, nothing's right Comfort me until the sun arrives

He found the caps lock He’s got some views

I can feel the shackles falling to the ground And I will miss my family every then and now

I have opinions I must shout! I don't deserve this, hear me out!

There's someone here that you should meet My pet, he cures anxiety ("It's for therapy!")

The little lies you’re told, it seems like they don’t love you anymore Yeah, they’re right outside your door, it’s come to an end

Have you ever lit a year on fire? You are, you are, you are You are, you are You are, you are, you are You are, you are

I just need something to get me through the night A new obsession or something to hold in my sights
