Down in Albion

They're black and blue

But we don't talk about that

Are you from 'round here?

How do you do?

I'd like to talk about that

Talk over

Gin in teacups

And leaves on the lawn

Violence at bus stops

And the pale thin girl with eyes forlorn

Gin in teacups

And leaves on the lawn

Violence in dole queues

And the pale thin girl behind the checkout

If you're looking for a cheap sort

Set in false anticipation

Ill be waiting in the photo booth

At the underground station

So come away, won't you come away

We can go to

Deptford, Catford, Walford, Digbeth, Mansfield

Anywhere in Albion

Yellowing classics

And canons at dawn

coffee wallows and pith helmets

and an English song

New bought classics

And canons at dawn

terrible warlords, good warlords

and an English song

But if you're looking for a cheap sort

Glint with perspiration

There's a four-mile queue

Outside the disused power station

Ah come away, say you'll come away

We're going to...

Semford, Woville, Newcastle

Anywhere oh

If you're looking for a cheap tart

Glint with perspiration

Theres a five mile queue

Outside the dissused power station

Now come away, won't you come away

We're going to...

Wrexham,Oldham, Nunthorpe, Rowlam, Bristol

Anywhere in Alb
