Paroles de Southside Tenements

London City's Southside Tenements Rusty cans, broken cars, cracked cement Someone blocked the drains, someone's smashed a vent In a southside. . . A Southside Tenement London City's Southside Tenements Flags are flying for some royal event People hanging out the St. Paul's windows Linin' up on the pavements and on The High Street And on City Road and from Crossfields And the Southside Tenements. I get restive, I got to leave Take the shortcut home, Past the arches, by the railway Where an' old friend swears that he could save me For a crazy boy he's okay For a southside. . . A southside cavalcade Hear the haunted. . . the haunted serenader Just a memory a-fadin' on The Broadway Fading from the southside The Southside Tenements Sleepwalkin' to The Oxford Arms No-one noticing warehouse alarms Slamming dominoes in the back bar Safe from harm, by The Tenements The Southside Tenements London City Southside Tenements Cops say my kids are thieves They say "The Bill are bent" I dunno, I'm only sharin' rent In a southside A Southside Tenement. London City's Southside Tenements Broken parts, broken hearts, cracked cement Some spray-can words 'bout love an' gold - remember them? And a madman cryin' "Nobody's condemned" Not even Southside, Southside Tenements And I remember Southside Tenements.
