Lyrics
Two Storey Town
On a right-angled street in a Right-minded time;
A gridiron named after colonist's wives.
You wore a nametag, I bummed a smoke in a two-storey town.
Balcony flowers over neon signs,
dignities set to terracotta and lime.
We were unplanned - like an Idea in a two-storey town.
Yeah, here underneath The World’s Tallest Free Standing lie.
Ah well, at least the sun mocks only as she shines.
And you loved a guy - he had a wife and son;
it takes a good heart to betray someone.
Yeah, we were reckless; like Charity in a two-storey town.
But a city of eyeless smiling clerks,
A hostelry of souls that smirk.
We were impossible – like a God in a two-storey town.
Yeah, here underneath The World’s Tallest Free Standing lie.
Ah well, at least the sun mocks only as she shines.
"La, da da da, da: da da da, da da."
"La da da da, da da da, da da."
"La da da da, da da, da da, da da, da da."
Breathing in the second hand literal thought
under a smog of proving only what's not
and believing in nothing but the numb Great Heart Attack.
Yeah, we were bloody - like Amity in a 2-storey town.
We thought were pure - like a service charge in a two-storey town.
Baby, your buildings are big but darling, you’re a two-storey town.
