Cut off your nose despite your friends 

Breathing holes that will never end and 

Speak all you want or just pretend 

Cos she think she is a different class 

So she sits all day by the looking glass, oh 

It doesn't talk, it doesn't last 



But it's not what I've heard you know 

A picture speaks a thousand words 

But baby don't feel down 

I left my heart in the provincial town, yeah 



You sold your soul for magic beans 

Don't believe all you read on computer screens and 

These things they mean nothing to me 

Rimpton stain came off the track 

You go there once and you don't come back, oh 



Good that's what I say 



But it's not what I've heard you know it 

Cut your losses, shoot the poets 

And one day you'll come down 

To find yourself in the provincial town 



But it's not what I've heard you know 

A picture speaks a thousand words 

But baby don't feel down 

I left my heart in the provincial town, yeah 



But it's not what I've heard you know it 

Cut your losses, shoot the poets 

And one day you'll come down 

Oh, to find yourself in the provincial town
