I don't like taste of the water in the sea
I don't like what it leaves in my mouth
And yeah it may be true, that by the water it looks pretty
But I gotta try get out of the South
And maybe it's about time I took a train
I don't think they'll miss me anyway
I can't find a good reason to stay
I know the North can be quite grey
It's too expensive down there anyway
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Well I used to have quite a lot of good friends, and that's fitting
But none have really tried to reach out
And yes it was true, that at times I was shitty
But not enough to cut me right out
And maybe it's about time I took a train
I don't think they'll miss me anyway
I can't find a good reason to stay
I know the North can be quite grey
It's too expensive down there anyway
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
(Leave the South)
Leave the South
(Leave the South)
Leave the South
