home town girl

(ｉｗａｎｎａｔｅｌｌｙｏｕ)

I wanna tell you

(ｂｕｔｉｃａｎ’ｔｓｐｉｔｉｔｏｕｔ)

but I can't spit it out

(ｔ－ｔ－ｔ－ｔｒｉｐｐｉｎｇｏｎ)

T-t-t-tripping on

(ｍｙｔｏｎｇｕｅａｎｄｍｙｍｏｕｔｈｉｓｓｔｉｆｆ)

my tongue and my mouth is stiff

(ｆｅｅｌｓｌｉｋｅｉ’ｍｈａｎｇｉｎｇｏｆｆ)

Feels like I'm hanging off

(ｔｈｅｅｄｇｅｏｆａｃｌｉｆｆ)

the edge of a cliff

(ａｎｄｍｙｅｙｅｓｃａｎ’ｔｐｉｃｋａｐｏｃｋｅｔ)

And my eyes can't pick a pocket

(ｗｈｅｒｅｔｈｅｙ’ｒｅｈａｐｐｙｔｏｓｔｉｃｋ)

where they're happy to stick

(ｉ’ｍｒｕｎｎｉｎｇｆｒｏｍｔｈｅｐｏｉｎｔ)

I'm running from the point

(ｂａｂｅ，ｉ’ｍｍｉｓｓｉｎｇａｔｒｉｃｋｗｉｔｈｙｏｕ)

Babe, I'm missing a trick with you

(ｍｙｌｉｎｅｉｓｕｐｂｕｔｇｉｒｌ)

My line is up but girl

(ｉ’ｍｍｉｓｓｉｎｇｍｙｃｕｅ．)

I'm missing my cue.

(ｂｕｔｃａｎ’ｔｙｏｕｇｉｖｅｍｅａｆｉｘ，)

But can't you give me a fix,

(ｓｏｉ’ｍｃｒａｖｉｎｇｃｏｎｆｉｄｅｎｃｅ？)

so I'm craving confidence?

(ｗｅｌｌ，ｉｒｅｅｋｏｆｓｗｅａｔ)

Well, I reek of sweat

(ａｎｄｔｅｅｎａｇｅｉｎｎｏｃｅｎｃｅ)

and teenage innocence

(ｗｅｌｌ，ｉｗａｎｔｙｏｕｓｏ，)

Well, I want you so,

(ｂｕｔｉｋｎｏｗｙｏｕ’ｌｌｎｅｖｅｒｋｎｏｗ)

but I know you'll never know

(ｃａｕｓｅｉ’ｍｔｏｏｓｈｙ，)

Cause I'm too shy,

(ｉ’ｍｔｏｏｓｈｙｆｏｒｔｈｅｈｏｍｅｔｏｗｎｇｉｒｌ！)

I'm too shy for the hometown girl!

(ｉｗａｎｎａｔｅｌｌｙｏｕ)

I wanna tell you

(ｂｕｔｉ’ｍｓｉｃｋｗｉｔｈｔｈｅｆｒｉｇｈｔ)

but I'm sick with the fright

(ｓ－ｓ－ｓ－ｓｌｉｐｐｉｎｇｕｐ)

S-s-s-slipping up

(ｉ’ｍｃａｕｇｈｔｉｎｔｈｅｌｉｇｈｔｏｆｌｕｓｔ)

I'm caught in the light of lust

(ｉｇｅｔｔｈｅｆｅｅｌｉｎｇ)

I get the feeling

(ｔｈａｔｙｏｕａｉｎ’ｔｔｏｏｆｕｓｓｅｄ．)

that you ain't too fussed.

(ｍｙｈｅａｄｆｅｅｌｓｈｅａｖｙ)

My head feels heavy

(ａｓｔｈｅｒｅｇｒｅｔｓｉｎｋｓｉｎ)

as the regret sinks in

(ｉｓｈｏｕｌｄｎ’ｔｂｅａｆｒａｉｄ)

I shouldn't be afraid

(ｔｏｔａｋｅｉｔｏｎｔｈｅｃｈｉｎ)

to take it on the chin

(ｂｕｔｉｄｕｃｋ，ｉｍｉｓｓｔｈｅｊａｂ)

But I duck, I miss the jab

(ｂｕｔｉ’ｍｈｉｔｗｉｔｈｔｈｅｈｏｏｋ)

but I'm hit with the hook

(ｂｕｔｃａｎ’ｔｙｏｕｇｉｖｅｍｅａｆｉｘ，ｓｏ)

But can't you give me a fix, so

(ｉ’ｍｃｒａｖｉｎｇｃｏｎｆｉｄｅｎｃｅ？)

I'm craving confidence?

(ｗｅｌｌ，ｉｒｅｅｋｏｆｓｗｅａｔ)

Well, I reek of sweat

(ａｎｄｔｅｅｎａｇｅｉｎｎｏｃｅｎｃｅ)

and teenage innocence

(ｗｅｌｌ，ｉｗａｎｔｙｏｕｓｏ，)

Well, I want you so,

(ｂｕｔｉｋｎｏｗｙｏｕ’ｌｌｎｅｖｅｒｋｎｏｗ)

but I know you'll never know

(ｃａｕｓｅｉ’ｍｔｏｏｓｈｙ，)

Cause I'm too shy,

(ｉ’ｍｔｏｏｓｈｙｆｏｒｔｈｅｈｏｍｅｔｏｗｎｇｉｒｌ！)

I'm too shy for the hometown girl!
