Up on out onto the stage the small town stardom night
He flexes out for fame and fortune into the light
The way she tears into the heart makes me realise
That I never understood hatred ′til I looked into those eyes
She cries, "No one's gonna talk down to me again
No one′s ever gonna patronise me again
I'm gonna get out of this town
And steal myself a crown
I'm gonna get myself some power
If it′s the last thing that I do"
Heading out of Bradford with a ticket on the train
And a fate as hard as steel and as sharp as any pain
With pictures in the papers smiling oh so good
While she lies in bed with racing dreams hot as blood
′Cause love will make you happy
Yeah love will keep you warm
And love can build a cushion
To keep you safe from harm
But hate will drive you onwards
Yeah hate will drive you upwards
'Til you can get back all the bastards
Who ever tried, oh how they tried to put you down
And when she′s gone forever please don't lay her down to rest
In a quiet little churchyard along with all the rest
Throw a great big party to remember that she lived
Give her headlines on the TV to remember who she is
′Cause no one's ever gonna talk down to her again
No one′s ever gonna patronise her again
She's gonna get out of this town
And steal herself a crown
She's gonna get herself some power
If it′s the last thing, the last thing that she does
If it′s the one thing that she does
If it's the only thing that she ever does
