Small Town














You feel frozen

But you've been chosen

You lay there drunken

Your dreams seem sunken













Your world's a small one

And you break the rules

You're one big fish

In a bowl of fools











Tired of serving up your 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

Your bar won't serve you

You have no nerve to










Make a break

From this sad old school

Across the lake

Lies a place that's cool









Run, you got a place to go

Run, you got a boat to row

Run, you 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're talking 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

Morcheeba
