The Lyrics
All of these are genuine Uk/US/Canadian towns.
coming from 'No Name' California's tough
those Georgians from 'Santa Claus' say "not enough"
'Skiddy', Kansas, ain't where I reside
'Big Beaver lick', Kentucky, doesn't sound too nice
that Arkansas township thats called 'Toad Suck'
'Dead Horse', Alaska, was just bad enough
when the postman sees it he laughs a bit
much more so at 'Butternuts', and 'Busti'
'cause I don't wanna live in a place called that:
'Kn*b Lick', or 'F*cking' or the 'Isle of Tw*tt'
'Lickey End' was bad enough, but 'Shafter's mad
and I don't wanna live in a place called that
Virginia's got 'Bagdad' and 'Bumpass'
'Kermit' and 'Frogtown' - names that seemed to last
'Wombwell' and 'Grimethorpe' - both near me
unlike Nova Scotia's 'Economy'
'cause I don't wanna live in a place called that:
'Kn*b Lick', or 'F*cking' or the 'Isle of Tw*tt'
'Lickey End' was bad enough, but 'Shafter's mad
and I don't wanna live in a place called that
no I don't wanna live in a place called that:
'Giggleswick', 'Sandwich' or the 'Isle of Tw*tt'
whoever thought of 'Ramsbottom' was a prat
'cause I don't wanna live in a place called that:
Oh if you think 'Wetwang' has a mayor who presents Countdown
or that 'Bushland' in Texas will regret that now
If you wanna live in 'Thong' or in 'Titsey' or in 'Sway'
move out of 'Arp', move out of 'Gay'
'cause I don't wanna live in a place called that:
'Kn*b Lick', or 'F*cking' or the 'Isle of Tw*tt'
'Lickey End' was bad enough, but 'Shafter's mad
and I don't wanna live in a place called that
no I don't wanna live in a place called that:
'Giggleswick', 'Sandwich' or the 'Isle of Tw*tt'

Exit 144 on Interstate 75 in northern Tennessee: "Stinking Creek Road." I am not making this up.
Nice job, Jim A. I can back you up, Michael, I used to pass that exit as I travelled between IL and NC and remember that sign well.
Excellent job, but you forgot some major ones lol...ok, the last time I was in Lancastor county Pennsilvania (Where the Amish live) I bought a key chain bewcause I couldnt stop laughing....on it was a road sign that had a bunch of towns in Lancastor...they include, Intercourse, Blue Ball, VirginVille, and Bird in Hand......Who would have thought those Amish were so dirty?
Surprise! I pass that road a lot, and you are not making it up, Michael. I often wondered what they were thinking when they named it that.
