Northern

[Verse 1]
Got myself undone
I spent two weeks on the run
Bought some crystal, had some fun
Just like we used to do
Stole a car and drove down south
To my mother's boyfriend's house
Came down for three days on the couch
Just like she used to do
I woke up alone
In the distance, there's a phone
In my heart, a sinking stone
So get me out of here
She told me I couldn't stay
Said I'd just get in the way
Of her and the old man and their new kids
I told them they could go get fucked
Bought a knife for fifteen bucks
From the Kmart down at Tea Tree Gully mall

[Pre-Chorus]
Midnight blue
In my room

[Chorus]
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la

[Verse 2]
I spent the day just getting high
Felt so lonesome I could cry
Bussing 'round and 'round the northern city heat
Saw the Smokemart down the street
Took the knife in there with me
And all I got was eighty bucks and Winfield Blues

[Pre-Chorus]
Midnight blue
In my room

[Chorus]
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la

[Verse 3]
Sat there waiting for the cops
On the footpath by the shops
All the cars just kept on staring as they passed by
Send my love to all the boys
You know that I had no choice
In my dreams, I hear your voice, I know it's right

[Pre-Chorus]
Midnight blue
In my room

[Chorus]
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la
