Reynolds Park by The Wombats Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2011

[Verse 1]
Do you remember
Those days in Reynolds Park?
I stood on a wasp's nest
As our day grew to dark
Eleven stings, but well worth it
This is how our youth made its first bold start

[Verse 2]
There was a village fete
Where legend has John met Paul
It was also
Where we smoked weed and played two-touch football
You had a goldfish
And you killed it on the spot
This is how our bad habits made their first real start

[Chorus]
Now that place is just a dream that I once had
Getting chased by the police was never that bad
This is where our habits and youth got a real kick-start
And how they owe you, how I owe ya, Reynolds Park
[Verse 3]
Do you remember
All the scrapping in the dark?
You threw me in a thorn bush
As our arguing grew too fast
By the devil's cave
Where people hid smut and page three of the Daily Star
I don't know how but it shaped us, shaped us into what we are

[Chorus]
Now that place is just a dream that I once had
Getting chased by the police was never that bad
This is where our habits and youth got a real kick start
And how they owe you, how I owe you, Reynolds Park

[Refrain]
How they owe you, how I owe you, Reynolds Park
How they owe you, how I owe you, Reynolds Park
How they owe you, how I owe you, Reynolds Park
How they owe you, how I owe you, Reynolds Park
How they owe you, how I owe you, Reynolds Park
How they owe you, how I owe you, Reynolds Park
How they owe you, how I owe you, Reynolds Park
How I owe you, Reynolds Park
