WHEN WE GOT THROWN OUT I LEFT WITHOUT MUCH FUSS
AN' WEEKENDS WE’D GO DANCING
DOWN STREATHAM ON THE BUS
YOU ALWAYS MADE ME LAUGH
GOT ME IN BAD FIGHTS
PLAY ME POOL ALL NIGHT
SMOKIN’ MENTHOL
I PRACTISED DAILY IN MY ROOM
YOU WERE DOWN THE CROWN PLANNING YOUR NEXT
MOVE
GO ON A NICKING SPREE
HIT THE WRONG GUY
EACH OF YOU GET THREE
YEARS IN BRIXTON
I DID MY VERY BEST TO WRITE
HOW WAS BUTLINS?
WERE THE SCREWS TOO TIGHT?
WHEN YOU LOT GET OUT
WERE GONNA HIT THE TOWN
WE’LL BURN IT ***IN’ DOWN
TO A CINDER
G E
COS YEARS HAVE PASSED AND THINGS HAVE CHANGED
C D
AND I MOVE ANYWAY I WANNA GO

I’LL NEVER FORGET THE FEELING I GOT

WHEN I HEARD THAT YOU'D GOT HOME

AN' I’LL NEVER FORGET THE SMILE ON MY FACE

AN’ IF YOU'RE IN THE CROWN TONIGHT
