Lyrics

My god, this town needs a shakedown
Any more I'll be having a breakdown
Working for the weekends to come around
And when they do there's still nothing going down
'Cause I've been thinking about taking a holiday
Nowhere special, some sun, some place to stay
'Cause all I know is I gotta get away
Won't make it just living day to day
'Cause I've been thinking about a thousand different things
And every time I try to think I realise it doesn't matter to me
(That's no way for someone to go)
(I don't have to tell you, you should know)
And these days I think it's time that you let go
(You're staring out o' your window)
(Onto the wasteland down below)
Maybe that was the way it was meant to be
But you know that'll never be me
My girl, she moved to the city
Dope messed her up, she don't look so pretty
I only see her every now and then these days
And when I do we ain't got so much to say
She said she'd never be a wasted hippy girl
Too much to lose, so little time to change the world
Would not believe it only I was there that night
Passed out on the floor fighting for her life
She used to talk about a thousand different things
And every time she tried to talk I realised it doesn't matter to me
(That's no way for someone to go)
(I don't have to tell you, you should know)
And these days I think it's time that you let go
(You're climbing out o' your window)
(Onto the wasteland down below)
Maybe that was the way it was meant to be
But you know that'll never be me
Now I'm watching crap on the TV
What did I do before she used to call round to me
And I know this is getting out of hand
I tried to run when I knew I could hardly stand
'Cause I've been thinking about a thousand different things
And every time I try to think I realise it doesn't matter to me
(That's no way for someone to go)
(I don't have to tell you, you should know)
And these days I think it's time that you let go
(You're jumping out o' your window)
(Onto the wasteland down below)
Maybe that was the way it was meant to be
But you know that'll never be me
You know that'll never be
You know that'll never be
You know that'll never be
You know that'll never be
