Lyrics The Courteeners

The Courteeners

Fallowfield Hillbilly

So I say, is that all that matters anymore?

Who happened to like that band first

And who likes them more

Why do you compensate for the fact that you are clearly, oh so very silly

By walking around my town

Like a fallowfield hillbilly?

You know who you are

I've seen the way that you're looking at all of the normal kids

You think that they've just come out Strangeways because they won't bat both eyelids

When you walk past with your eyeliner on, one hand in glove

They're here just for the music, the thing that they love

And it was literally carnage at the back of Piccadilly to see who could buy it first

Does the limtied edition seven inch

Quench your thirst?

For an album that will probably let you down

But it doesn't even matter because you don't like that band anymore

They're not underground

I've seen the way that you're looking at all of the normal kids

You think that they've just come out Strangeways because they won't bat both eyelids

When you walk past with your eyeliner on, one hand in glove

I'm gonna ask you, can you find your own way home, are you stuck?

And, please don't think that I'm being a bitch

I just happen to witness a lot of things which

Get me annoyed because you're filling a void

Have you got nothing better to do?

I've seen the way that you're looking at all of the normal kids

You think that they've just come out Strangeways because they won't bat both eyelids

When you walk past with your eyeliner on, one hand in glove

I'm gonna ask you, can you play guitar, my boy, can you fuck?
