Lyrics

Living in a town that's on the brink of being a city
Won't satisfy my soul though the women may be pretty
My mind is made up, I have had enough
I'm leaving here today
Shops, walls, pavements, streets is all that I could find
From head to foot and toe to eye I looked till I was blind
No matter what turns up, I'm leaving here
This place ain't good enough
You might think that I'm being funny
Just 'coz I won't spend my money here
Well, let me tell you I have no objection
Except that I can find correction everywhere I go
Jump high in the sky unless you're feeling bitter
About walking down an empty street with gutters full of litter
My mind is made up, I have had enough
I'm leaving here today, hey, hey, oh, I'm going away
You might think that I'm being funny
Just 'coz I won't spend my money here
Well, let me tell you I have no objection
Except that I can find correction everywhere I go
Jump high in the sky unless you're feeling bitter
About walking down an empty street with gutters full of litter
My mind is made up, I have had enough
I'm leaving here today
My mind is made up, I have had enough
I'm leaving right away, hey, hey, oh, I'm going away
Getting out of this place
I know I've said it before but this time I mean it
I'm leaving
I'm packing my bags and going away
Getting out of this place
