Sup up your beer and collect your fags
There's a row going on down near Slough

I'm dreaming dreams, I'm scheming schemes, I'm building castles high.
They're born anew, their days are few, just like a sweet butterfly.
And as the daylight is dawning, they come again in the morning.

If you smile at me, I will understand
'Cause that is something everybody everywhere does in the same language

Take me out tonight
Where there's music and there's people
And they're young and alive

And if the homework brings you down
Then we'll throw it on the fire
And take the car downtown

You take my life
But I'll take yours too
You fire your musket
But I'll run you through

Had a love affair with Nina,
In the back of my Cortina,
A seasoned up hyena,
Could not have been no obscener.
She took me to the cleaners,
And other misdemeanours,
But I got right up between
Her...Rum n'er Ribena.
