Lyrics

Sheila goes out with her mate Stella
 It gets poured all over her fella
 'Cause she says, "Man, he ain't no better"
 Then the next man kicking up fuss
 Drunk she stumbles down by a river
 Screams calling London
 None of us heard her coming
 I guess the carpet weren't rolled out
 Oh when my love, my darling
 You've left me here alone
 I'll walk the streets of London
 Which once seemed all our own
 The vast suburban churches
 Together we have found
 The ones which smelt of gaslight
 The ones in incense drown
 Her lingo went from the cockney to the gringo
 Any time she sing a song the other girls sing along
 And tell all the fellas that the lady is single
 A fickle way to tickle on my young man's ting
 She's up for doing what she like
 Any day more like the night
 She drowned drunk sorrows
 That she stole, bought, borrowed
 She didn't like fights
 But at the same time understood
 Fellas will be fellas till the end of time
 Good heavens you boys
 Blue-blooded murder of the English tongue
 ♪
 Jack had a gang that he called, "The Many Grams"
 He was known as, "Smack Jack the Cracker Man"
 In life he was dealt some shit hands
 Ah, but the boys got the back now
 And Jay went the same way as Mickey and Dan
 Dependent mans upon the heroins
 And man, Lisa had a baby with Sam
 And now Jack's on his own, man
 Well done Jack, glug down that cider
 Your right she's a slut
 And you never fucking liked her
 Not like what he stopped so shocked
 'Cause it turns out the last dance
 Killed the pied piper
 Tough little big man
 Friends with your daughters
 Only 'cause they drive him
 To pick up all his quarters
 Crawler, lager lout brawlers
 Fall on the floor think they're free
 But they ain't near the border
 Too young, gunned down by your hell fire corner
 Always did a favour but never took a order
 Behave young scallywag, a fine young galahad
 Glad ragged up but only ever getting fag hags
 Hung on his shoulder, cheap price shop tag
 Slag better understand he came for the glamour
 But this town's original superficial the issue
 For one dear Jack there 35 doppelgangers
 Sheila goes out with her mate Stella
 It gets poured all over her fella
 'Cause she's says, "Man, he ain't no better"
 Then the next man kicking up fuss
 Drunk she stumbles down by a river
 Screams calling London
 None of us heard her coming
 I guess the carpet weren't rolled out
 So this a short story 'bout the girl Georgina
 Never seen a worse, a clean young mess
 Under stress at best, but she pleased to see ya
 With love, God bless, we lay her body at rest
 Now it all dear started with daddy's alcoholic
 Light weight chinking down, numbing his brain
 And the doctor said he couldn't get the heart dear started
 Now beat up, drugged up she feeling the strain
 She says, "In a rut, what the fuck I s'pose to do?"
 "Suck it up start stop keep running through"
 True, but you try, ain't easy to do
 She been buckle belt beaten from the back like a brat
 Dunno where she goin' but she know where she at
 So Georgy it's time to chain react
 But the truth is you know she probably fought back
 Tears stream down her face she screamed away
 When I fall, no one catch me
 Alone lonely, I'll overdose slowly
 Get scared, I'll scream and shout
 But you know it won't matter she'll be passing out
 I say, "Giggidibiggidi up" just another day
 Another sad story, that's tragedy
 Paramedic announced death at 10:30
 Rip it up, kick it to spit up the views
 Sheila goes out with her mate Stella
 It gets poured all over her fella
 'Cause she's says, "Man, he ain't no better"
 Then the next man kicking up fuss
 Drunk she stumbles down by a river
 Screams calling London
 None of us heard her coming
 I guess the carpet weren't rolled
 Sheila goes out with her mate Stella
 It gets poured all over her fella
 'Cause she's says, "Man, he ain't no better"
 Then the next man kicking up fuss
 Drunk she stumbles down by a river
 Screams calling London
 None of us heard her coming
 I guess the carpet weren't rolled out
