You spend your time in smokey rooms
where haggled old women with cheap perfume say
"it never happens for people like us you know"
well nothing ever happened on it`s own
and well the toilets smell of desperation
the streets all echo of aggregation
and you wonder
why you cant get no sleep
when you`ve got nothing to do,
and you`ve had nothing to eat
your life`s slipping
and sliding right out of view
and there`s absolutely nothing
that you can do, well
We`ll live and die,
We`ll live and die in these towns
Don`t let it drag you down
Don`t let it drag you down now
We`ll live and die,
We`ll live and die in these towns
Don`t let it drag you down
Don`t let it drag you down now
Dirty dishes from a tv meal
that went cold from the wind
throuh a smashed up window
You cant go out if anybody calls ya
cos you cant have a bath
when there`s no hot water
and your friends are out
on the town again
and you ask yourself if it will ever end
and it`s all too much for your head to take
just a matter of time before you break, well
We`ll live and die,
We`ll live and die in these towns
Don`t let it drag you down
Don`t let it drag you down now
We`ll live and die,
We`ll live and die in these towns
Don`t let it drag you down
Don`t let it drag you down now
Now...
Now...
We`ll live and die,
We`ll live and die in these towns
Don`t let it drag you down
Don`t let it drag you down now
We`ll live and die,
We`ll live and die in these towns
Don`t let it drag you down
Don`t let it drag you down now
