Wet Wet Wet - TOWN CRIER lyrics

Everybody knows

Does everybody know, does everybody know,

does everybody know

I'm the town crier

And everybody knows

I'm a little down

With a lifetime ago

Maybe you don't believe my heart is in the right place

Why don't you take a good look at my face

Other boys use the splendour of their trembling lip

They're so teddy bear tender and tragically hip

I'm a never gonna cry again

I'm a gonna be as strong as them

They say they'd die for love

And then they live it out

They'll give me something to cry about

Suddenly you really fall to pieces

I'm the town crier

And everybody knows

I'm a little down

With your lifetime ago

Maybe you don't believe my heart is in the right place

Why don't you take a good look at my face

And other boys use the splendour of their trembling lips

They're so teddy bear tender and tragically hip

Love and unhappiness go arm in arm

Long suffering friends of your fatal charm

Living for the pity that you're gonna get hurt

Just a little boy lost in a big man's shirt

Suddenly you really fall to pieces

Fall to pieces

I'm the town crier

And everybody knows

I'm a little down

With a lifetime to go

Maybe you don't believe my heart is in the right place

Why don't you take a good look at my face

And other boys use the splendour of their trembling lip

They're so teddy bear tender and tragically hip
