Hometown Girls Lyrics - Snapshot - The Strypes

I wanna tell you but I can't spit it out 

T-t-t-tripping on my tongue and my mouth is stiff 

Feels like I'm hanging off the edge of a cliff 

And my eyes can't pick a pocket where they're happy to stick 

I'm running from the point 

Babe, I'm missing a trick with you 

My line is up but girl I'm missing my cue. 

But can't you give me a fix, so I'm craving confidence? 

Well, I reek of sweat and teenage innocence 

Well, I want you so, but I know you'll never know 

Cause I'm too shy, I'm too shy for the hometown girl! 

I wanna tell you but I'm sick with the fright 

S-s-s-slipping up I'm caught in the light of lust 

I get the feeling that you ain't too fussed 

My head feels heavy as the regret sinks in 

I shouldn't be afraid to take it on the chin 

But I duck, I miss the jab but I'm hit with the hook 

But can't you give me a fix, so I'm craving confidence? 

Well, I reek of sweat and teenage innocence 

Well, I want you so, but I know you'll never know 

Cause I'm too shy, I'm too shy for the hometown girl! 

But can't you give me a fix, so I'm craving confidence? 

Well, I reek of sweat and teenage innocence 

Well, I want you so, but I know you'll never know 

Cause I'm too shy, I'm too shy 

But can't you give me a fix, so I'm craving confidence? 

Well, I reek of sweat and teenage innocence 

Well, I want you so, but I know you'll never know 

Cause I'm too shy, I'm too shy for the hometown girl!
