Saint Etienne, David Essex - Relocate lyrics

You lie on the sofa
It's like I don't know ya
Now we never talk we never walk
Outside it's the city outside

I look out the window
And see the streets below
Cars and the people lonely church steeple
Surrounded by grey we need to move away

Here we go, over and over and over
You're talking about it again
"Let's move out, relocate
This place is in a state
Let's buy a pig or a hen"

We need some open space
We need a change of pace

So life here in town, girl
Is getting you down
And you long for a change
But won't it seem strange
With fields all around
We won't hear a sound

The grass may be greener
The air may be cleaner but I love the city
I know it's not pretty
But at least there is life

You call this "life"?

Here we go, over and over and over
You're talking about it again
"Let's move out, relocate
This place is in a state
Let's buy a pig or a hen"

We need some open space
We need a change of pace

(Stars shine bright in the country)
(Life feels right, Won't you trust me)

Hand me the remote
I'm not sure that we'd cope
In the middle of nowhere
Surrounded by fresh air i'd miss my mates

This place is a state

You'd do your work from home
Online or on the phone
I could grow vegetables

Sounds like a load of balls

Let's relocate

I said I'd miss my mates!

Here we go, over and over and over
You're talking about it again
"Let's move out, relocate
This place is in a state
Let's buy a pig or a hen"

We need some open space
We need a change of pace
