The Brutalists - Talk of the Town Lyrics

They were the talk of the town
We had to watch them lose their crown
They had their eye on me
Don't think that they could even really see

Don't wanna watch them fall
Like they've done so many times before
Its quite a sight to see
And they can play it off so casually

Dont wanna sweep them up
And pour 'em back into their cup
Already overflowed
So many many many years ago oi!

Lived on the right side of town
Their mom and dad were very proud
They went to public school
Now they might as well be playing the pools

Chorus
They were the talk of the town x 4

Yeah, I've seen 'em around
Not much competition
They've had a bit of a run in
I got a monkey for that crown

Chorus
They were the talk of the town x 4
