[Verse 1]
I was just enjoying myself
I was minding my own business
And here you come smiling into the room
Anybody would think you were Jesus
Where’d you get all that confidence
Can I get the name of your dealer?
I never liked you and I’m still on the fence
I might be jealous but I’m not a believer
[Pre-Chorus 1]
What do you say? What do you say? What do you say?
Just go away, just go away
[Chorus]
This used to be my town (my town)
You being here just brings me down
I die inside when you’re around (when you're around)
This used to be my town
[Verse 2]
I used to behave like you
I didn’t care about people around me
I couldn’t move, I was so up my own arse
Then reality came and found me
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now its all fine, now its all fine, now its all fine
This is your time, this is your time
[Chorus]
This used to be my town (my town)
You being here just brings me down
I die inside when you’re around (when you're around)
This used to be my town
[Bridge]
In a couple of years or so
We’ll be having this conversation
There’ll be a pretty young thing we know
Pulling up into our oil station
[Chorus]
This used to be my town (my town)
You being here just brings me down
I die inside when you’re around (when you're around)
This used to be my town
