Small Town

You feel frozen But you've been chosen You lay there drunken Your dreams seem sunken Your world's a small world And you break the rules You're one big fish In a pool of fools Tired of serving up you town Tired of wearing that crown Tired of sliding up and down Tired of being you Your work's no future Your girl don't suit you The bar won't serve you You have no nerve to Take a break From this sad old school across the lake Lies a place that's cool Run you've got a place to go Run you've got a boat to row Run you've got a face to show Run while you can The high street's sleeping As Friday's creeping The shops are open But their minds are closed How's it going but it's not their concern They talkin' stuff about you That you never learn Smile, you're on your own Smile, 'cause you've outgrown Smile, you lost your home Smile to yourself --- Small Town - Morcheeba
