Home Sweet Home

[Verse 1]
Well I started off standing on the sidelines
Ended up in a car park on my knees
All [?] the reductive power of a coastal town
I can never quite seem to leave

[Verse 2]
And we all stood around with bated breath
Waiting for that apple to fall from the tree
While the broken glass and the old public baths
Were slowly returned to the sea

[Chorus]
Ah home, sweet home
How could you be so cruel
The culture of blame
The patriot game
An old man in cassocks to keep down the masses
With guilt and shame

[Verse 3]
We were two pairs of shoes beneath the cubicle door
And me with my library card
And if I wanted to feel any worse about myself
Now I'd have to try pretty damn hard

[Verse 4]
And all of the girls that have straightened their hair
And poured themselves into a dress
'Cos if you're living at home, drawing the dole
Naw, you can't let yourself get depressed

[Chorus]
Ah home, sweet home
How could you be so cruel
The culture of blame
The patriot game
An old man in cassocks to keep down the masses
With guilt and shame

[Chorus]
Ah home, sweet home
How could you be so cruel
The culture of blame
The patriot game
An old man in cassocks to keep down the masses
With guilt and shame
