A free house, a sound-system and a fridge full of beer;
|
I've known how this story ends for a good few years.
|
The night lays out before my eyes, there's no new faces, no surprises.
|
This town is growing old with me, so I'm making a move.
|
Everybody round here's been out with everybody else,
|
Which makes talking to girls hazardous to my health.
|
They've been in this genepool so long they've got wrinkled toes;
|
I don't want all her exes to be people I know.
|
There's millions more fish in the sea, so I'm making a move.
|
|
I'm bored of this town, bored of this scene, bored of these people, yeah.
|
I'm an expert at pretending that everything is OK,
|
But I'm just a kid and it seems as if I've signed my life away.
|
I need to get out and see what the rest of the world is about.
|
This toen ain't big enough for the one of me, I'm making a move.
|
|
Every guy with long hair round here is a star,
|
Accorinding to his girlfriend and the way that he holds his guitar.
|
If anyone gets out they stick in the knife, I don't want to get stuck here for the rest of my life.
|
I'm sick of these fuckers, I'm moving on.
|
I still want to be buried here, just like I said, but I'd prefer it if you'd wait until I'm actually dead.
|
It's easy to get caught inside a town that seems to have a hive-mind,
|
But I'm packing up and moving on,
|
When I move out from my parents' house I'm gone, yeah fuck you guys I'm gone.
|
|
This town ain't big enough for the one of me,
|
So why don't you get from in front of me?
|
We're all going to move to london anyway, so I'll see you in town.
