Talk Of The Town

The Pretenders

Such a drag to want something sometime

one thing leads to another i know

was a time wanted you for mine

nobody knew

you arrived like a day

and passed like a cloud

i made a wish, i said it out loud

out loud in a crowd

everybody heard

'twas the talk of the town



it's not my place to know what you feel

i'd like to know but why should i?

who were you then, who are you now?

common labourer by night, by day highbrow

back in my room i wonder, then i

sit on the bed, look at the sky

up in the sky

clouds rearrange

like the talk of the town



maybe tomorrow, maybe someday

maybe tomorrow, maybe someday

you've changed your place in this world

you've changed your place in this world



oh but it's hard to live by the rules

i never could and still never do

the rules and such never bothered you

you call the shots and they follow

i watch you still from a distance then go

back to my room, you never know

i want you, i want you but now

who's the talk of the town?
