I feel alright but then it starts to rise until it drowns my mind, taste of something bitter Them and I, taken for a ride under these western skies, lead me to the river And it’s just like this, I get up every day small town and no play Neighbours glares for parking in the vicinity of their front gate Letter from the SLC tea-stained ‘we need work information that’s up to date’ Up to date? I’m 27 mate, and living in the third bedroom of my parents estate for a non-existent rate Living off a pint a week from the cheapest boozer on a dead end street Applying for offers I never receive, scratching at my smartphone screen woe is me Some day everything’s gonna be be different Some day I’ll paint my masterpiece - just wait and see I feel alright but then it starts to rise until it drowns my mind, taste of something bitter Them and I, taken for a ride under these western skies, lead me to the river I head down town to potter around look into McDonalds to see a heavy crowd Library stands under grey clouds and is utterly empty Derelict as the day it was erected Next door at town hall I can see the tory MP who will never be contested and forever elected Sometimes it feels like a fishbowl you know? Market stalls coming from the back of a lorry Employees of the nail salon from the back of a lorry Varnishing the nails of ignorant middle-class ladies with faces of fury Some day everything’s gonna be different Some day they’ll paint their masterpiece - just wait and see I feel alright but then it starts to rise until it drowns my mind, taste of something bitter Them and I, taken for a ride under these western skies, lead me to the river ‘Ah Mr Reid signing on again I believe? I see you’ve got a degree I’ve got an opening working the tills at KFC Hand me your CV and we can start paying off those mammoth tuition fees’ I feel alright but then it starts to rise until it drowns my mind, taste of something bitter Them and I, taken for a ride under these western skies, lead me to the river
