I love this town like an unmade bed I love this town of the living dead I love this town gonna paint it red If I can spare a minute I love this town where curtains twitch Where this door scratches next door's itch It's a pantomime at fever pitch And we can all be in it People here are large as life They know the whole world and his wife From a razor's edge to a kitchen knife They'll be glad to help you I love this town of hidden charms Where no one means you any harm And if you sleep through false alarms No one here would blame you I love this town on the beaten track Where nothing slips between the cracks Her rent's arrears his heart attack
Now isn't that a shame Everyone's friendly to your face And everybody knows their place As long as you respect their space You won't have to worry The town hall clock is calling out It's rush hour on the roundabout Now I know without a doubt It's the place for me I love this town the dirty streets It's a merry-go-round with broken seats Where silk and lace and satin sheets Are only dirty washing I love this town down on its knees It's going under by degrees Still we can do just as we please As long as no one's watching I love this town, I love this town I love this town, I love this town
