The Suburbs

Made Famous 87. MEMBERS

(Q www.singtotheworld.com
Same old boring
Sunday morning,

old man's out
washing the car
Mum's in the kitchen
cookin' Sunday dinner.

Her best meal,
moanin' while it lasts
And Johnny's upstairs

in his bedroom sitting
in the dark
Annoying the
neighbours

with his punk rock,
electric guitar
This is the sound
Every lousy Monday
morning. Heathrow jets

go crashin'
over our home
Ten o'clock,
Broadmoor siren,

driving me mad,
won't leave me alone
The woman next door,

just sits inside
and cries
She hasn't come out
once, ever since her

husband died.
This is the sound
Instrumental
Youth club groups used

to wanna be free
Now they want anarchy.
They play too fast, they
play outta tune, practice
in the singer's bedroom
The drums are quite
good, the bass is too
loud and I can't hear
the words.
This is the sound
Saturday morning,
family shoppers,

crowding out
the centre of town
Young blokes,
sitting on the benches
shouting at the young
girls walking around
And Johnny stands

there, in his window
looking at the night
Says,
Hey what you

listening to?
There's nothing there,
that's right
Instrumental
This is the sound
This is the sound

This is the sound
This is the sound
This is the sound
Can you hear?
yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah

yeah-yeah-yeah
The one that I want
