Satellite Town

Boo Hewerdine

So I was raised in a city of gold
They start 'em young and make 'em old
And everything could be bought and sold
It costs too much to be free

When you're in a place where people love you
It's the same sky up above you
I live in a satelite town

A house at the end of the railway track
An Anderson shelter, the chimneys were black
I turned around and I never went back
There was somewhere where I had to be

When you're in a place where people love you
It's the same sky up above you
I live in a satelite town and I don't mind

I live in a satelite town
I live in a satelite town
I live in a satelite town

And on the morning that I said goodbye
Nobody stopped to ask me why
Those were the days when I closed my eyes
There was so much more to see

When you're in a place where people love you
It's the same sky up above you
I live in a satelite town and I don't mind

I live in a satelite town
I live in a satelite town
I live in a satelite town and I don't mind

I live in a satelite town
I live in a satelite town
Here in a satelite town

You tore me up
You tore me up
You tore me up
You tore me up
