Come inside,   here it’s nice and warm   have a cup of tea   I just go and get some cookies      From the pooring rain,   when it turns november,   oh, we are a useless lot   looking after our weaker neighbours      come tell me your story,   I’ll try to be patient,   I will listen,   I might even ask some questions      From the silent crowd,   when everything turns faster,   oh, we are a useless lot   looking after our weaker neighbours      Because this is a small town ( this is a small town )   you can recognize their faces ( recognize their faces )   this is a small town,    so what about big cities?      So have a good night,   I hope they do provide   beds with clean and cozy sheets,   and remember: you can come again if you like!      From the pooring rain,   when it turns november   oh, we are a useless lot   looking after our weaker neighbours       You can come again if you like!
