Toowong by The Mangroves Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2021

[Verse 1]
They said they're gonna move out
Growing out of college now
It's time to leave the Village

What am I to do now?
All my friends have moved south
To the Gabba or Sydney

It's a Wednesday night, I'm alone and I'm wasted
The people are the same but the faces are changing
I'll buy you a beer if I can sit at your table
Wait... I'm the weird old guy at the RE

[Chorus]
Don't wait to wait too long
Before I leave Toowong
Don't want to wait too long
But I'll be fine
But I'll be fine
[Verse 2]
I was hero in thеse places
I knew all thе faces
Now people avoid me

Is it time to leave this sharehouse?
Get a job off-campus now?
Should I leave the Village?

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I'm alone at Regatta at 3 on a Monday
My friends are all dead and their kids have all blocked me
Maybe I should pack up and move to Sydney?
But traffic's worse than Coro Drive

[Chorus]
Don't wait to wait too long
Before I leave Toowong
Don't want to wait too long
But I'll be fine
But I'll be fine

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Don't wait to wait too long
Before I leave Toowong
Don't want to wait too long
But I'll be fine
But I'll be fine
