*'Angry Young Man'* (lyrics)
The young boy got told he his whole world ahead as a happy go lucky upstart.
Promises made by older friends and peers didn't work out on his behalf.
When things didn't work out the way he planned.
He'd punch brick walls with his bare hands.
Life as he knew, now he couldn't understand.
When he was an angry young man.
He used to drink himself into a stupor just to play the fool.
Said he'd happily piss away his future because he didn't follow rules.
He got the wrong attention when he sought dense.
His actions went beyond none sense.
At his own expense in his defence.
He was an angry young man.
When he was an angry young man.
When he was an angry young man.
As if a new world before him began.
When he was an angry young man.
He used to bang on doors in the early hours and wake the neighbourhoods he would lurk.
He couldn't be any more surley or sout, nasty piece of work.
He was the stereotypical young lost cause.
Flexing his muscles as far as the law.
Somehow somewhere he thought he'd get applause.
Because he was an angry young man.
When he was an angry young man.
When he was an angry young man.
Sparks flew in his brain pan.
When he was an angry young man.
The old boy got told what he could have become as a happy go lucky upstart.
But the fire in his eyes and the smoke in his head,
had clouded where he kept his heart.
A chip on his shoulder was a cross to bare.
He struggled and strived to come up for for air.
Life seemed easy and a damn sight more fair,
before he was an angry young man.
When he was an angry young man.
When he was an angry young man.
As if a new world before him began.
When he was an angry young man.
When he was an angry young man.
When he was an angry young man.
Sparks flew in his brain pan.
When he was an angry young man.
As if a new world before him began.
When he was an angry young man.
The shortest fuse and an attention span
When he was an angry young man.

🎵 *LYRICS - Smalltown Boy*
(COVER - Bronski Beat)
[Intro]
To your soul
To your soul
Cry
Cry
Cry
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (Oooh)
[Verse 3]
Pushed around and kicked around, always a lonely boy
You were the one that theyd talk about around town as they put you down
[Verse 4]
And as hard as they would try theyd 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
[Chorus]
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
(Crying to your soul, crying to your soul)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
(Crying to your soul, crying to your soul)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (Cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
[Bridge]
Cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry, boy, cry
(Cry)
[Verse 5]
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
[Chorus]
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (Cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (Cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
(To your soul, to your soul)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (Cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (Cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (To your soul)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
(To your soul)
