1
Better Stop dreaming of the quiet life cos it's the one we'll never know
2
And quit running for that runaway bus cos those rosey days are few
3
And stop apologising for the things you never done
4
"˜Cos time is short and life is cruel
5
but it's up to us to change this town called malice.
6
Rows and rows of disused milkfloats stand dying in the dairy yard
7
And a hundred lonely housewives clutch empty milk bottles to their hearts
8
Hanging out their old love letters on the line to dry
9
It's enough to make you stop believing when tears come fast and furious
10
In a town called malice - Yeah-ea-eah!
11
Ba-Ba, Ba-Ba, Ba-da-Ba, Ba-Ba, Ba-Da--Ba! Whoah!
12
Ba-Ba, Ba-Ba, Ba-da-Ba, Ba-Ba, Ba-Da--Ba!
13
Struggle after struggle, year after year
14
The atmosphere's a fine blend of ice
15
I'm almost stone cold dead in a town called malice
16
Oo-ooh! Yeah!
17
A whole street's belief in Sunday's roast beef
18
Gets stashed against the Co-Op
19
To either cut down on beer or the kids new gear
20
It's a big decision in a town called malice
21
Oo-ooh! Yeah!
22
The ghost of a steam train echoes down my track
23
It's at the moment bound for nowhere just going round and round,Ohh
24
Playground kids and creaking swings, lost laughter in the breeze
25
I could go on for hours and I probably will but,
26
I'd sooner put some joy back into this town called malice.
27
Yeah-ea-eah!
28
It's a Town called malice - Yeah-ea-eah!
29
Whoooh!
30
It's a Town called malice "“ Whoooh-Yeah!
