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


Can't you give me a fix I'm craving confidence
I reek of sweat and teenage innocence

I want you so but I know you'll never know
I'm too shy, I'm too shy for the hometown girls


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


Can't you give me a fix I'm craving confidence
I reek of sweat and teenage innocence

I want you so but I know you'll never know
I'm too shy, I'm too shy for the hometown girls
