Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy

You leave in the morning with everything you own in a little

Black case

Alone on a platform, the wind and the rain on a sad

And lonely face


Mother will never understand why you had to leave

But the answers you seek will never be found at home

The love that you need will never be found at home


Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away


Pushed around and kicked around, always a lonely boy

You were the one that they'd talk about

Around town as they put you down


And as hard as they would try they'd hurt to make you cry

But you never cried to them, just to your soul

No, you never cried to them, just to your soul
