XTC

XTC was a New Wave band from Swindon, England, active between 1977 and 2005. The band enjoyed some chart success, including the UK and Canadian hits "Making Plans for Nigel" (1979) and "Senses Working Overtime" (1982), but are perhaps even better known for their long-standing critical (rather than commercial) success. more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

Beatown 
I spoke to your boss this morning 
He asked why you weren't home? 
I said sir they left without warning 
You won't even get them on the telephone 

They're in Beatown, it's a capital city and all roads lead to 
Beatown, beatown 

I spoke to your owner this lunchtime 
He asked why you weren't home? 
I said they thought it was hunchtime 
You won't even see them standing on their own 

Beatown, it's a capital city and all roads lead to 
Beatown, beatown 

He says he wants his money back sir 
He says you're all communists sir 
I said they beat you fair and square sir 
They use the head, and not the fist 

Beatown, beatown
