Take This Town
Composer(s): Andy Partridge - Brian Howe - Terry Thomas
Performer(s): Bad Company; XTC
Living in a rabbit tunnel
Keep the doggie in her kennel
Mustn't let her see the world
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Living under Mum and Daddy
Carry hope just like a caddie
Mustn't let them see you're killed
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Shout it clear for all to hear
You won't shoot this bird down
Shout it clear for all to hear
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
Turn a deaf ear to the orders
Keep them as your perfect daughters
Mustn't let them know their minds
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Turning on to only music
Breaking from their childhood attic
Mustn't let them open the blinds
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Oh, no! Don't treat her like that
Shout it clear for all to hear
You won't shoot this bird down
Shout it clear for all to hear
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
We're going to take this town
It's time she stopped being your ornament
It's time she put that in the past for permanent
You can't hold her if she wants to roam around around around around around
You can't hold her dream and keep it gagged and bound, gagged and bound
We're going
We're going to
We're going to take
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
We're going to take this
