This is our town, this is my place
This is where my whole world is lived in
Nothing much, and just out of reach of all the city ligths
It's a high town, it's a low town
It's a get here, come on you grow town
No-one does, but everyone thinks they're gonna make it soon
This is one place I respected
Now I feel its really dejected
No-one cares and the people just stare
and a man on the box says "Hey you, don't walk that away,

[male voice] vote for me [Kim] You'll get more pay,

[male voice] keep working hard"

[Kim] But they work slow

Here it comes now, Sunday morning
Just anothe sleepy town yawning
Down below everything looks just like another day
But in the warm glow of the sunrise there's a child who's searching with young eyes
Looking 'round and feeling inside he's gonna fly away
There was one time I was leaving
But folks around me kept grieving
Friends said go, but my dad said no and my mum kept saying
"Don't go, don't go away Don't leave us, you've got to stay
just raise them kids, oh mother no"

No prospects, just projects
Don't try to tell me we're living
There's no real need to try
Can't you see this towns gonna die

Hail the new age, it's a rats cage
Join the place for breeding dumb spieces
All stacked up and doing whatever someone tells you to
Burn the place down, make it dead ground
Show the people just what they're missing
Wake up, wake up, can't you believe in what I'm telling you
Now it's changed without any warning
Cranes just crash and bricks just smash
While a billboard's saying
"Let's go, lets get away
Come fly me, you've weeks to pay
When sunshine calls", bit I won't go
