I was classic bullying material strictly speaking, | |
I was 4ft tall with a 3ft mohican, | |
I bunked off school and bought some tattoo ink, | |
Engraved ‘punk 4 life’ on my arm with a safety pin, | |
I was sleeping in a park and selling | |
The Big Issue, | |
But this ain’t no sob story so don’t reach for the tissue, | |
Cos these | |
Spanish punks took me under their wing, | |
Opened a squat in | |
Clapham Common they let me move in, | |
This place was fucking huge, | |
I couldn’t believe my luck, | |
But it was no stranger to the odd ruck, | |
I was sharing a room with this bloke called | |
Jeff, He had rotting teething and world’s worst breath, | |
But we had such a time graffing up all the walls, | |
Day trips to | |
Brighton when the occasion called, | |
Drinking red wine and | |
Coke, playing our music loud, | |
On a shitty old tape player we sung it proud, | |
We used to sing, | |
If we hang the landlord from the top of the stairs, | |
We can live here forever without a care, | |
So let’s hang the landlord from the top of the stairs, | |
And we’ll live like a millionaire, | |
We looked out for each other, as a group we were tight, | |
All coppers are bastards but we were alright, | |
Painting our leather jackets, soaping up our hair, | |
We looked like aliens out of anywhere, | |
If the tourists wanted a photo we would charge them a pound, | |
When we had enough we’d buy a bottle and pass it around, | |
A bag of cheap glue | |
Evo Stick, | |
Fix a fix, | |
And whatever we could find got thrown into the mix, | |
We used to sing, | |
If we hang the landlord from the top of the stairs, | |
We can live here forever without a care, | |
So let’s hang the landlord from the top of the stairs, | |
And we’ll live like a millionaire, | |
Me and Al always blagged it into gigs for free, | |
Sneaking in our own cans after a robbing spree, | |
Getting chased out the offy and halfway down the street, | |
Smiling at the girls we thought looked sweet, | |
And Puff used to give me all his hand me downs, | |
He had a great big heart but he done too much brown, | |
Sarah used to look out for me, make sure | |
I was alright, | |
When Alan and the bigger ones got in a fight, | |
We used to sing, | |
If we hang the landlord from the top of the stairs, | |
We can live here forever without a care, | |
So let’s hang the landlord from the top of the stairs, | |
And we’ll live like a millionaire, | |
A couple years ago the tramps in | |
Piccadilly told me | |
Aaron had died, | |
My head spun around till | |
I sat on the kerb and cried, | |
And I found myself sitting on | |
Puff’s begging patch, | |
Well I ain’t seen him around, | |
I pray that he didn’t lose the match, | |
Now Al’s in prison and he was the sensible one, | |
Don’t let the bastards grind you down mate, our time ain’t begun, | |
Don’t let the screws get in your head and fuck you up, | |
Cos when you get out we’ll string that landlord up, | |
And we can sing, | |
If we hang the landlord from the top of the stairs, | |
We can live here forever without a care, | |
So let’s hang the landlord from the top of the stairs, |
