This Town Ain’t Big Enough for the One of Me

A free house, a soundsystem and a fridge full of beer
I've known how this story ends for a good few years
The night lays out before my eyes, there's no new faces, no surprises
This town is growing old with me, so I'm making a move
Everybody round here's been out with everybody else
Which makes talking to girls hazardous to my health
They've been in this gene pool so long they've got wrinkled toes
I don't want all her exes to be people I know
There's millions more fish in the sea, so I'm making a move

[Chorus]
I'm bored of this town, bored of this scene, bored of these people, yeah
I'm bored of this town, bored of this scene, bored of these people, yeah
I'm an expert at pretending that everything is OK
But I'm just a kid and it seems as if I've signed my life away
I need to get out and see what the rest of the world is about
This town ain't big enough for the one of me, I'm making a move

Every guy with long hair round here is a star
According to his girlfriend and the way that he holds his guitar
If anyone gets out they stick in the knife
I don't want to get stuck here for the rest of my life
I'm sick of these fuckers, so I'm moving on

I still want to be buried here, just like I said
But I'd prefer it if you'd wait until I'm actually dead
It's easy to get caught inside a town that seems to have a hive-mind
But I'm packing up and moving on
When I move out from my parents' house I'm gone
Yeah fuck you guys I'm gone

[Chorus]

This town ain't big enough for the one of me
So why don't you get from in front of me?
We're all going to move to London anyway, so I'll see you in town
