Is it Cologne with its great cathedral? |
|
Milan with its glamour and its pace? |
|
London with its river and its bridges? |
|
Lisbon with its beauty and its grace? |
|
Funny looking buses |
|
Climb it's pot-bellied hills |
|
And a solitary jogger |
|
Times the time he kills |
|
Do you know where I'm gonna go? |
|
None of you have guessed, so none of you can know |
|
If you've been, that's not where I mean |
|
It's got class and it's got excellence like you've never seen |
|
Your town is dragging me down |
|
Dragging me down, down, down |
|
Your town is dragging me down |
|
Dragging me down, down, down |
|
Is it Dublin with its culture and its wit? |
|
Madrid with its market square? |
|
Paris with its bustling cafes? |
|
Hull with its musical flair? |
|
Do you know where I'm gonna go? |
|
None of you have guessed so none of you can know |
|
If you've been, that's not where I mean |
|
It's got class and it's got excellence like you've never seen |
|
Your town is dragging me down |
|
Is dragging me down, down, down |
|
Your town is dragging me down |
|
Is dragging me down, down, down |
|
As I watch them drop the grain into your fish tank brain |
|
How can you like this place when it never even rains? |
|
Never even rains |
|
Your town is dragging me down |
|
Is dragging me down, down, down |
|
Your town is dragging me down |
|
Is dragging me down, down, down |
|
Is dragging me down, down, down |
|
Is dragging me down, down, down |
|
Is dragging me down, down, down |
