After yesterday’s track by northerners FYI Chris who live in south-east London and Manchester’s Thick Richard, a catchy, restless indie number by the Mancunian quartet about considering to leave the capital. The song is taken from their latest EP National Trust. To enjoy and buy more of Blanketman’s music, visit their website or Bandcamp page. National Trust can also be found on the Spotify embed below. Out on PIAS.
I don't like taste of the water in the sea
I don't like what it leaves in my mouth
And yeah it may be true, that by the water it looks pretty
But I gotta try get out of the South
And maybe it's about time I took a train
I don't think they'll miss me anyway
I can't find a good reason to stay
I know the North can be quite grey
It's too expensive down there anyway
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Well I used to have quite a lot of good friends, and that's fitting
But none have really tried to reach out
And yes it was true, that at times I was shitty
But not enough to cut me right out
And maybe it's about time I took a train
I don't think they'll miss me anyway
I can't find a good reason to stay
I know the North can be quite grey
It's too expensive down there anyway
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South
Leave the South …
