"We'll Live and Die in These Towns" Lyrics

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
tand 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'lllive 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'lllive 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'lllive 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'lllive 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'lllive 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'lllive and die in these towns
don't let it drag you down
don't let it drag you down now
