XTC LYRICS - Beatown

"Beatown"



B E A T O W N

I spoke to your boss this morning

He asked why you weren't home?

I said sir they left without warning

You won't even get them on the telephone



They're in, it's a capital city and all roads lead to

Beatown, beatown



I spoke to your owner this lunchtime

He asked why you weren't home?

I said they thought it was hunchtime

You won't even see them standing on their own



Beatown, it's a capital city and all roads lead to

Beatown, beatown



He says he wants his money back sir

He says you're all communists sir

I said they beat you fair and square sir

They use the head, and not the fist



Beatown, beatown
