m.j. hibbett & the validators - leicester's trying to tell me something lyrics

it feels like leicester’s trying to tell me something
and that something is ‘don’t come back’
they seem afeared that i’ll return with my guitar
and so they are
redeveloping my past
and if you think that that sounds paranoid
i would draw your attention to the fact
that one by one each pub i’ve loved or played above
has been demolished
or turned into some flats

feels like they’re trying to knock down my life in rock
i wish they’d stop
trying to knock down my life in rock
i wish they’d stop it

the magazine got knocked down to build halls of residence
the royal mail is now a parking lot
they roofed over the pump & tap
and walled over the stage
and they created office sp-ce from the durham ox
the physio is derelict, the angel is a house
the spreadeagle’s just a hole in the ground
the charlotte’s just stopped going
though all that still remained of my days there
was phil who still did the sound

it feels like they’re trying to knock down my life in rock
i wish they’d stop
trying to knock down my life in rock
i wish they’d stop it

and so i went to see the council
in the banana buildings on welford road
wherein i found the councillor for planning applications
looked like me with a goatee
he said h-llo
i am the you from an alternate universe
where you never moved on from the same old pubs
stuck in the past you never had adventures
or made half the friends you have
and also never fell in love

so i’ve come here to knock down your life in rock
don’t try to stop
me as i knock down your life in rock
don’t stop
