Ghostown ft. Dj KIRSA Lyrics

Larry got laid off

Got his salary shut off

That his family fed off

So now Sally just set off

The catalyst? The cost

To the capitalist boss

Who just saddle up his loss, left fresh like the frost

The factory was frozen, last clog croaked and...

The gates crashed closed and. never to be reopened

Machines dust erosion, rust stuck in motion

Kids just paint the slogans, the last words were spoken

Kevin carries the coffin, with his cousins Ken and Dawson

Cos his stubborn fathers rotten, and left him there an orphan

He thinks about it often, how he lost the war he fought in

Then he has a fit of coughing, cos spliffs he's been shopping

Friends in the same boat, you know how the saying goes

School to the dole queue, poverty revolt you

Or even catapult you, run up and assault you

The Village new culture, is the spectre and the vulture...

Got them crawling out the gutters, in their pocket

Stanley cutters Nervous nerves make you stutter, stay locked behind your shutters

You can either cry and sulk whilst they beat you to a pulp or

Ot transform like the hulk and Submit to the cult

It’s the ghostown, ghostown Ghostown, ghostown

Times are so scandalous

The station gate hangs to rust

Youth are so vandalous

Only in a gang they trust

Kevin’s out with wee terry

‘Nother night of cheap sherry

Trying to chat up sweet Kerry

Pops a pill and feels very...

Empty, looking for something to fill the abyss

“Why don’t you try some of this” cries cold sore

Chris Now Kevin’s heard the rumours but tonight he's got no purpose

First time it’s a gift but tomorrow it’s a purchase

Now he stays in the dark thinking god do desert us

What’s the needle doing if we pick beneath the surface

Habit such a habit, not so easy to kick

Like your nose when you pick

But you chose to be sick

Know your foes from your mates

When your dose escalates

Sell your clothes for the H

Now your loath to escape

And it happened so abrupt

The whole town has gone corrupt

In jail hoarded up

The whole street is boarded up

It’s the ghostown, ghostown

Ghostown, ghostown
