Broken down in broken town Call the lifeguard to watch me drown Send the boys around I'm broken down in broken town My CV says I watch TV I haven't worked since 1993 Send the boys for me I'm broken down in broken town In broken town where nothing ever works It get's into your veins and stains your shirts Blinds your ambition and kicks it to death Tunnels into your vision till nothing is left Child overboard, child ignored In a children's ward, 1994, 1994 Life's to short for a life support That's broken down In broken town where nothing ever works Misspent youth on the roof of a church Your birthdays are belated, your toys are dead Board, frustrated and poisoned with lead I don't want to stagger into mental health Following a shadow of my former self If only I believed that I could break away But I know I'll never leave And so I guess, I'll stay forever Broken down in broken town |
