| [00:14.79] |
Better stop dreaming of the quiet life |
| [00:16.70] |
Cause it's the one we'll never know |
| [00:19.16] |
And quit running for that runaway bus |
| [00:21.40] |
Cause those rosy days are few |
| [00:23.57] |
And, stop apologizing for the things you've never done, |
| [00:28.37] |
Cause time is short and life is cruel |
| [00:30.76] |
But it's up to us to change |
| [00:32.63] |
This town called malice. |
| [00:42.90] |
Rows and rows of disused milk floats |
| [00:45.07] |
Stand dying in the dairy yard |
| [00:47.38] |
And a hundred lonely housewives clutch empty milk |
| [00:50.03] |
Bottles to their hearts |
| [00:51.76] |
Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry |
| [00:57.02] |
It's enough to make you stop believing when tears come |
| [00:59.61] |
Fast and furious |
| [01:01.09] |
In a town called malice. |
| [01:20.68] |
Struggle after struggle, year after year |
| [01:25.53] |
The atmosphere's a fine blend of ice |
| [01:27.33] |
I'm almost stone cold dead |
| [01:29.37] |
In a town called malice. |
| [01:39.48] |
A whole street's belief in Sunday's roast beef |
| [01:44.00] |
Gets dashed against the Co-op |
| [01:48.79] |
To either cut down on beer or the kids new gear |
| [01:51.12] |
It's a big decision in a town called malice. |
| [02:10.37] |
The ghost of a steam train, echoes down my track |
| [02:14.25] |
It's at the moment bound for nowhere |
| [02:17.07] |
Just going round and round |
| [02:19.62] |
Playground kids and creaking swings |
| [02:21.64] |
Lost laughter in the breeze |
| [02:24.09] |
I could go on for hours and I probably will |
| [02:26.25] |
But I'd sooner put some joy back |
| [02:27.80] |
In this town called malice. |
| [02:37.78] |
In this town called malice. |
