Lyrics:Beatown

by XTC

I spoke to your boss this morning He asked why you weren't home? I said sir they left without warning You won't even get them on the telephone They're in Beatown, it's a capital city and all roads lead to Beatown, beatown I spoke to your owner this lunchtime He asked why you weren't home? I said sir they thought it was hunchtime You won't even see them standing on their own Beatown, it's a capital city and all roads lead to Beatown, beatown He says he wants his money back sir He says you're all communists sir I said they beat you fair and square sir They use the head, and not the fist Beatown, beatown
