[Verse 1]
They came to Boston on their vacation
They came, they saw, they annoyed me
They saw it all (What?) Faneuil Hall
It's best if they just avoid me
Rented a car to see the sights
But they found the Hub confusin'
Looked for the Swan Boats In Mattapan
Well, I find that real amusing

[Chorus 1]
I was here before they came
I'll be here long after
Don't wanna share, but it seems clear
That I'm gonna have to

[Verse 2]
They came to Boston for an education
Lived in the dorms, joined a frat
Jammed my bars and subway cars
Now, what the fuck is that?
Spent year one having fun
And causin' aggravation
Spending daddy's cash on a toga bash
When the hell's graduation?
[Chorus 2]
I was here before they came
I'll be here long after
Don't wanna swear, but it seems clear
That I'm gonna have to
Aw, fuck!

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Chorus 1]
I was here before they came
I'll be here long after
Don't wanna share, but it seems clear
That I'm gonna have to
I was here before they came
I'll be here long after
Don't wanna share, but it seems clear
That I'm gonna have to

[Outro]
They came to Boston
They came to Boston
They came to Boston
They came to Boston
They came to Boston
They came to Boston
They came to Boston
They came to Boston
They came to Boston
