I decided that this is no place to hang around
Can`t get excited, I don`t like living in this town
I don`t like living among the dead
Everybody`s so boring, swaying in their bed
Everybody I know has been dead in years
They can`t laugh or swear, can`t even cry no tears
Don`t wanna stay here with all the dead
Everybody`s so boring, nothing in their heads
And all the old men go down the pub
And all the young men smoke dope and listen to dub
And it`s a London office job or a sausage factory
You know they`re gonna get you boy, but they`ll never ever ever get me
`Cause I can`t stand it and I ain`t gonna hang around
If I had a chance I`d burn this shithole to the ground
Don`t wanna stay here with all the dead
Everybody`s so boring, nothing in their heads
And we`re living and dying and I don`t know why
It`s just that it`s senseless, underneath the English sky
I`m gonna go to the smoke and leave it all behind
I`m gonna get away from here before I lose my mind
We`re living in a ghostown (8 times)
