I remember thinkin' 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 sunset and the plains of cement

And the way the night seems to turn the color of orangeade



In this town cellular phones are hot with ~thieves~ [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

Smell of puke and piss

Smell of puke and piss on your stilettos



Here comes that panic attack

My heart stops, then it starts

Give me a drink

I'll drink your round

I take you round the pole

It's cold up here [I see the universe waiting by a minibus]

You'll catch the flu or you'll catch the city

either way, you'll catch the flu

or you'll catch the city
