I remember thinking murder in the car
Watching dogs somersault
Through sprinklers on tiny lawns
I remember the graffiti
We are your children coming in
With spray cans of paint
I remember the sunsets
And the plains of cement
And the way the night just seemed
To turn the color of orangeade
In this town cellular phones are hot with teens
In this town we all go to terminal pubs
It helps us sweat out those angry bits of life
From this town the English army grind their teeth into glass
You know you'll get a kicking tonight
The smell of puke and piss
The smell of puke and piss on your stilettos
Here comes that panic attack
My heart stops and then it starts
Give me a drink I'll drink your round
I take you round the pole
It's cold up here
I can see the universe waiting by a minibus
You'll catch flu or you'll catch the city
Either way you'll catch flu or you'll catch the city
