Nashville
Cut it out now, hold it back
You're due a change of tune, a change of tack
Fuck that tried and tested track
Drown it like a kitten in a sack
I'm losing patience now because
This movie isn't what I thought it was
I'm feeling pretty psyched, I feel like maybe I've been spiked
And pretty soon you'll find me scratching at the walls
Sing to me, sing about your home
Sing me everything you've ever known
Sing me who you were when you weren't grown
Sing me who you are when you're alone
And maybe I can't stop and search your frown
But at least I'll know if something's going down
And you won't catch me napping when that something starts to happen
I'll be running when I hit the ground
And now I'm sat at the back of the bar with an unobstructed view
I feel like I'm in Nashville when I look at you
And I know that everyone thinks they're the you that you are singing to
I feel like I'm in Nashville when I look at you
You move like you're on set
Your stupid quips sound scripted for a bet
You know you've got to pay off every debt
Still you wait a while, see what you can get
I see you and you don't know that I'm looking
Yeah, I'll reel you in, just need to get my hook in
Those eyes that don't reflect but they command awe and respect
And they take credit card or cheque with advance booking
And you won't meet my stare
Yeah, you won't even see me there
And now I'm sat at the back of the bar with an unobstructed view
I feel like I'm in Nashville when I look at you
And I know that everyone thinks they're the you that you are singing to
I feel like I'm in Nashville when I look at you
You're due a change of tune, a change of tack
Fuck that tried and tested track
Drown it like a kitten in a sack
I'm losing patience now because
This movie isn't what I thought it was
I'm feeling pretty psyched, I feel like maybe I've been spiked
And pretty soon you'll find me scratching at the walls
Sing to me, sing about your home
Sing me everything you've ever known
Sing me who you were when you weren't grown
Sing me who you are when you're alone
And maybe I can't stop and search your frown
But at least I'll know if something's going down
And you won't catch me napping when that something starts to happen
I'll be running when I hit the ground
And now I'm sat at the back of the bar with an unobstructed view
I feel like I'm in Nashville when I look at you
And I know that everyone thinks they're the you that you are singing to
I feel like I'm in Nashville when I look at you
You move like you're on set
Your stupid quips sound scripted for a bet
You know you've got to pay off every debt
Still you wait a while, see what you can get
I see you and you don't know that I'm looking
Yeah, I'll reel you in, just need to get my hook in
Those eyes that don't reflect but they command awe and respect
And they take credit card or cheque with advance booking
And you won't meet my stare
Yeah, you won't even see me there
And now I'm sat at the back of the bar with an unobstructed view
I feel like I'm in Nashville when I look at you
And I know that everyone thinks they're the you that you are singing to
I feel like I'm in Nashville when I look at you
