Trouble Town Lyrics by Jake Bugg

Jake Bugg (10th Anniversary Edition)

2012

[Verse 1]
Stuck in speed bump city
Where the only thing that's pretty
Is the thought of getting out
There's a tower block overhead
All you've got's your benefits
And you're barely scraping by

[Chorus]
In this trouble town
Troubles I've found
In this trouble town
Word soon gets 'round

[Verse 2]
Kick the bottom, make troubles flee
Smoke until our eyes would bleed
The spark will pop the seed
Hear the sirens down the street
The kids get light on their feet
Or they'll be in the back seat

[Chorus]
In this trouble town
Troubles I've found

[Post-Chorus]
Sittin' on the pavement
Boy, you missed your payment
And they're gonna find you soon
If there's a beating in the rain
If there's a little bit of pain
Man, you're the one it happens to

[Verse 3]
If I talk of getting out
I only hear the laughter loud
It's got an ugly echo
Somewhere there's a secret road
To take me far away, I know
But 'til then I am hollow

[Chorus]
In this trouble town
Troubles I've found
In this trouble town
Fools I've found

[Post-Chorus]
Sittin' on the pavement
Boy, you missed your payment
And they're gonna find you soon
If there's a beating in the street
There's a feeling of defeat
You're the one it happens to

[Outro]
Stuck in speed bump city
Where the only thing that's pretty
Is the thought of getting out
