Oh
little town of Altrincham
I see you hiding there
where shops are closed
and men are dosed
with feelings of despair,

but in the mills that once stood
where
an Asda store stands now
a baby's crying in a pram
don't think that it's jesus
somehow.

ps. Altrincham we love you really.
slightly out of beat at the end but that's the way the cookie crumbles.
