. I remember nights out when we were young They weren't very good they were rubbish Running round Highroyds isn't fun Just teenagers testing their courage . Hanging outside nightclubs in the snow Not very cool or impressive They let in all the girls from the year below No need for ID's with those dresses . Got news from afar From a girl who knows who we are Still got my dinner money She can keep it . Never had a fight that we haven't lost Not very tough or athletic Once I had a boxing champ in a headlock When he gets out I'll regret it Got keys to a car Picked up a girl from Boston Spa Fast food and cinema It's not worth it . Got word from down south He'd heard about us word of mouth We haven't much stayed in touch Since Highroyds . Let it go, let it go
Cos no ones gonna tell you but a friend He's gone and he is gone and everybody went along And nobody was left here in the end . Got news from Uncle Hew Through a second cousin once removed Too late there's a housing estate It's called Highroyds . Got a text from an ex She wants to know when we're in London next Will you write a song about me I don't think so
