lyrics

I'm not buying it, buying it
And I won't queue up just to try it
In this temporary town it's
Quite hard to keep a friendship
I walk the underpass & ring road
Still dreaming of that disco
Where all the uncool kids can go
& they get to do all the things that they love

& it's much better than a place to walk
& it's much better than a place to hide
& it's much better than another drink
& it's much better than a way to die
& if you want me I'll be yr friend
No matter how little time we spend
Just promise that we're both being real
& you'll never ask me how I feel

Didn't anybody tell you
Avoiding life'll kill you
& the job so abusive you die there each day
Is the sound of you being robbed?
Didn't anybody tell you
You were the most beautiful kid in the world?
Fast forward to the drinking
& you know you can never be told
(You're unhappier then)

Didn't anybody tell you
That all the things inside you
Are there to be enjoyed?
Discovered, but not destroyed?
Didn't anybody tell you
Yeah maybe, if you want to
You'll someday catch the eye of another whose heart is true?

That must be better than a place to walk
That must be better than a place to hide
That must be better than another drink
That must be better than a way to die
& if you want me I'm still yr boy
No matter how much of me you destroy
Just promise that we're both being real
& you'll never ask me how I feel
