lyrics

I live in a town. That's got no views to speak of, but one of my favourites, you could easily get to has just been built on. You can no longer see flats in Somerstown, the flaming sky behind them from the bridge. Or hear the trains as they go rumbling, take people out of Fratton into town.
But round our way, the world is flat, horizon inching closer to where we are sat and there is nothing we seem to be able to do about that.
And I live on an island and there's not much space to speak of. Argue with out of towners about our island status but I tell you that their wrong. Cause there are more young Mums round here, than cracks left in the pavement. Hear couples argue with each other and their children through the paper of the single layer walls.
But round our way, the world is flat, horizon inching closer to where we are sat and there is nothing we seem to be able to do about that.
