Lover's Town
Billy Bragg
All the lies they told us in the classroom
Wouldn't fit in the outside world
They were right and i was wrong
I just had to tag along
I only know what they taught me
Remember when they caught me
Do not disobey just trying to get out of the way
It came to a head one night
Two dances two fights
All my mates just ran away
And as i walked home
With blood and tears on my best shirt
And someone say will they come after you?
I began to wonder what did I do wrong here?
I began to wonder do I belong here?
You think love only exists in your eyes
But it exists in girls smiles
You think love only exists in your eyes
But it exists in girls smiles
In Lover's Town
I was lonely then
The whole world had it in for me
I call on must have been all metal comb and misery
If ever you go back
There's lessons to still be learned
Those same boys are waiting outside the dance hall for when you return
You think love only exists in your eyes
But it exists in girls smiles
You think love only exists in your eyes
But it exists in girls smiles
In lover's town.
When the carpets paid for
You can have a party
And your friends can all come around
They were not my friends
My friends are in the future
Just as well, i had the sense to hide
But this was lover's town
No other town is quite like
Lover's
Lover's town
No other town is quite like
Lover's
Lover's town
Lover's town
Lover's
Lover's town
Lover's town
