Artist/Band: The Lucksmiths
Lyrics for Song: Untidy Towns
Lyrics for Album: Happy Secret [1999]



First things first: I have a happy secret

The next bit's worse

I intend to keep it that way

I can't remember the last word spoken

I got some mail I didn't open

It's an un-read letter day



I know both of us are poor

But baby what are phone bills for



When it's not raining

All these streets are filled with students

But you won't catch me complaining it's a nuisance

It's useless I know



A storm rolls across the suburbs

And the streets are as empty as the cupboards

But for the boy most likely

And the girl most lovely



Given time I could get tired of all this sleeping

The days I've thrown away

And the hours that I am keeping

But for a while I'm fairly happy feeling hopeless

A somersault in a winter coat

I didn't notice a thing



And I say it like it's unrehearsed

But I said it in the bathroom first

"The boy most likely

And the girl most lovely"



The hedges and the hibiscus

As soon as she's outside she says

"I grew up in the tidiest of towns"

Past the pub where my parents met

Resigning ourselves to modern architecture

Don't let the barstools get you down
