"One day I'm gonna be a freeway truck driver
Picking up guys along the way" you said
Well I think all these thoughts of American movies
Have gone right to our heads
And all this talk about our glamorous dreams seems so funny
As our bus turns a corner onto the estate
All the houses here are lonely (lonely)
Yet all the Christmas decorations are the same
Oh would I be sitting here with you
If there was something else to do in Nottingham?
Your eyes say "I don't think so"
I don't think so
Both your parents think I'm too polite and
My mother thinks you're 'simply delightful'
Is this ever going anywhere?
I don't think so
I don't think so
So we pretend this town's the coolest place we've ever been
Yet I feel I can hardly breath here
All the walls are closing in
Brief encounters can't buy you love... and so on
"Thirty minutes 'til someone comes home" you said
As you lay me down on your cousin's bed
And I close my eyes as I try to
Forget about the pain that we're both going through
Are we ever gonna get somewhere if all we know is Nottingham?
For Christ's sake
I don't think so
I don't think so
(How we ever gonna go far in Nottingham?)
I almost didn't recognize you today
You've gone and bleached your hair again and got another piercing
So when your call came out of the blue
Well I've got to admit, I was thinking about you
You look up at me from the foot of the bed
With that lie in your eyes telling me that you want me
I think you even screamed "I love you" today
(Liar!)
I just smile and let the moment take me away
'Coz deep down I know that you don't want
The high school boy from Nottingham, for Christ's sake
I don't think so
I don't think so
All I can ever do is touch
But I want you so fucking much tonight
Is this ever going anywhere?
I don't think so
I don't think so
I don't think so
I don't think so
Picking up guys along the way" you said
Well I think all these thoughts of American movies
Have gone right to our heads
And all this talk about our glamorous dreams seems so funny
As our bus turns a corner onto the estate
All the houses here are lonely (lonely)
Yet all the Christmas decorations are the same
Oh would I be sitting here with you
If there was something else to do in Nottingham?
Your eyes say "I don't think so"
I don't think so
Both your parents think I'm too polite and
My mother thinks you're 'simply delightful'
Is this ever going anywhere?
I don't think so
I don't think so
So we pretend this town's the coolest place we've ever been
Yet I feel I can hardly breath here
All the walls are closing in
Brief encounters can't buy you love... and so on
"Thirty minutes 'til someone comes home" you said
As you lay me down on your cousin's bed
And I close my eyes as I try to
Forget about the pain that we're both going through

I don't think so
I don't think so
I don't think so
I don't think so
