What is it? It’s bow’s orange sunset spring, That quick step groove down the Grove Road, It’s the blue smoke lamb of a cracked slab lab of bohemia, The richest man alive doesn’t have a penny, Looking out for the whites in his eyes and the ice in his next drink, And his next drink, And his next drink, And his next drink, I watch the world as the top of tower blocks become hidden by the skyline, So stitch that, That slit in the sky like a knife gash, and a fallen sixties leather jacket, The tenements so unlovely and kitsch, And the people rolling on in our colours and classes, classes and colours, The beats of New London, Twisted by the bitter rhythm of the wrong education, In the big schools, On the bigger grey gothic, pink plastic flower estates, Twizzling our biros and cashing our giros, And it’s tupence for your philosophy, And tupence for your dreams, Fair ye unwell on the welfare, And the state is a fair man-made maid, It understands the sweet sickly pleasure of melancholy, The lick die happiness of the horrors, Delights in the mystery of it’s own misery, A modern love, So here we are, The fucked generation, At the fag-end of the 20th century A.D., Young and still breathing, But now it’s a trial, Cause we tried it all and we’re tired by it all, Too much, too often, too many times, And it’s too late, But we’re not surrendering though, bump no we’re not, We’re on the offensive, On all fours in the puddles of No Man’s Land, And in that manner we move to the rhythms of ice cream vans playing ‘oranges and lemons’, lemons’, Whilst the police sirens spinning the weak in their mythical wails, Calling this to our selves, Opium for the elite, Yeah, and there’s his illegitimate brother, Unexpectedly smacking the kids of Stepney, at a cost, So let’s step out now, you and I, Let’s go now and stay a while, Underneath the sun, Council street lamps left on in the middle of the day, tussling for gravity, Branding skin, And it will tussle and brand, Tussle and brand, Till it explodes.
