Waking up is easy but you're too busy dreaming
Of all the other lives that you could step inside
Surround yourself with losers
They're there for your amusement
But you're not so far removed as you would really like
She's got so much to offer but her brain cells akimbo
You rise to the challenge and they call you a bimbo
A chance to escape but you missed the window
And there's a sunset over Dagenham
And you don't need goals when you're having fun
Cause you're alright for work and you're alright for money
But that don't make up for that fact that you're running away
From the life on the tv screen
Cause it's just too harsh and it's just too mean
But don't be dramatic
Some next Primadonna
You can't hide your hometown just cause you wanna
Baby pressures mounting (you're on your second one?)
But who's counting
And time is running out to make you man and wife (trouble and strife)
Give up on your daydream
You're a corporate slave by eighteen
And all because you look nice in your suit and tie
Oh what a life
When we're all born and bred in the M25
We're all brain dead when we reach 29
Give in to the pressure
Cause it's our way to survive
And there's a sunset over Dagenham
And you don't need goals when you're having fun
Cause you're alright for work and you're alright for money
But that don't make up for that fact that you're running away
From the life on the tv screen
Cause it's just too harsh and it's just too mean
But don't be dramatic
Some next Primadonna
You can't hide your hometown just cause you wanna
Don't get your city slicker knickers in a twist
It's just small town suburban ignorant bliss
And nothing can shake you outside of your own square mile
The people that you're in the business of hating
Seem happy and settled and you're contemplating
If all this was worth it to get your superior smile
Cause you come back home just to kick up a fuss
But this town's too small for the bunch of us
She's got so much to offer but her brain cells akimbo
You rise to the challenge and they call you a bimbo
A chance to escape but you missed the window
And there's a sunset over Dagenham
And you don't need goals when you're having fun
Cause you're alright for work and you're alright for money
But that don't make up for that fact that you're running away
From the life on the tv screen
Cause it's just too harsh and it's just too mean
But just don't be dramatic
Some next Primadonna
You can't hide your hometown just cause you wanna
Sunset over Dagenham
And you don't need goals when you're having fun
Cause you're alright for work and you're alright for money
But that don't make up for that fact that you're running away
From the life on the tv screen
Cause it's just too harsh and it's just too mean
But just don't be dramatic
Some next Primadonna
You can't hide your hometown just cause you wanna
Just cause you wanna
