The Vibrators

NIGHTMARE TOWN

Take a look at your town tonight

I don’t see any nightlife

It’s been plenty a years

Since anyone’s had a good time around here

Sure, there’s people all around

But at night this becomes a ghost town

You gotta get out before it’s too late

You gotta get out and it can’t wait

Darkness falls on your faceless town

Its painted smile and its hidden frown

Plenty of buildings but nothing to do

It’s just like radiation, it’s killing you

Take a really good look around

See how bad it is in this boring town

Don’t it all just get to you?

Don’tcha wish you were like me, just passing through

I can hear them nailing your coffin lid down

Lose the will to live in this nightmare town

Fragile people out on bloodstained streets

Nervous sentinels round curtains do peep

Darkness falls on your faceless town

Its painted smile and its hidden frown

Plenty of buildings but nothing to do

It’s just like radiation, it’s killing you

Take a look at your town tonight

I don’t see any nightlife

It’s been plenty a years

Since anyone’s had a good time around here

Don’t it all just get to you?

Don’tcha wish you were like me, just passing through

‘Cos every day’s burning the same

Neural pathway into your brain

Darkness falls on your faceless town

Its painted smile and its hidden frown

Plenty of buildings but nothing to do

It’s just like radiation, it’s killing you

Darkness falls on your faceless town (2x)

Darkness falls on your faceless town

Its painted smile and its hidden frown

Plenty of buildings but nothing to do

It’s just like radiation, it’s killing you

Darkness falls on your faceless town (2x)
