Hurtsville - Jack Ladder

For I know that you don’t love me

Won’t you take me for the night

Press me to your chest

Sink my appetite

For i left my town this morning

At the bottom of a well

In Hurtsville

She said come with me little boy

Please dont be afraid

The town is dying and we’re leaving straight away

She drove around the block

dropped me home and rang the bell

In Hurtsville

It hurts

All my past lovers

Have become the best of friends

They hold a weekly meeting

And they’re plotting their revenge

The soil is so soft i dug my grave just to standing still

In Hurtsville

Well they say if you’re born you’ll die here

I wonder if it’s true

The last time I checked our relations was just me and you

I’ll flip the burgers while you work the till

oooooooooooooh

In Hurstville

It hurts

Well baby’s cryin'

and mumma’s gone

and i’d be lying

if I said she’s coming home

I’m planting seeds amongst the weeds

I’ll never kill

In Hurtsville

They saw the wings of birds

They pull the stings from bees

They cut the heads off women

who keep the men down on their knees

I couldn’t see what was happening

I’m just a solider in a drill

In hurtsville

And they say if you’re born you’ll die here

I wonder if that’s true

The last time I checked pur relations was just me and you

I’ll flip the burgers while you work the till

oooooooooooooh

In Hurtsville

It hurts

The has-beens have been counted

The clock has ticked

The trap was set

And the fuse was lit

I came for an adventure

But i only found cheap thrills

In Hurtsville

It hurts

oooh it hurts

ooooh it hurts
