What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
You'd better stop dreaming of the quiet life
2
Cos it's the one we'll never know
3
And quit running for that runaway bus
4
'Cause those Rosey days are few
5
And stop apologizing for the things you've never done
6
'Cause time is short and life is cruel, but it's up to us to change
7
This town called malice.
8
Rows and rows of disused milk floats stand dying in the dairy yard
9
And a hundred lonely housewives clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts
10
Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry
11
It's enough to make you stop believing when tears come fast and furious
12
In a town called malice.
13
Struggle after struggle, year after year
14
The atmosphere's a fine blend of ice, I'm almost stone cold dead
15
In a town called malice.
16
A whole street's belief in Sunday's roast beef gets dashed against the Co-op
17
To either cut down on beer or the kids new gear
18
It's a big decision in a town called malice.
19
The ghost of a steam train, echoes down my track
20
It's at the moment bound for nowhere, just going round and round
21
Playground kids and creaking swings, lost laughter in the breeze
22
I could go on for hours and I probably will, but I'd sooner put some joy back
23
In this town called malice.
