Steve was a rebel and a boozer
The ac king of teenage cool
He was a clean cut calculating cruiser
Broke the heart of every kid in the school
Well I never had him figured for a loser
Till one morning no one could foresee
He fell in love with a sweet black angel
In brixton market se23
I've been in south kent clapham and cleveland
I've been in love and I've been deceived
But I've never been a sucker like steven
Who lost sight of everything he'd achieved
Well he told me on the night he was leaving
Found it pretty hard to believe
You'll fall in love with the sweet black angel
He said I had it coming to me
In love with the sweet black angel
He said I had it coming to me
I've got a friend in borstal
I've got a friend next door
I've got a friend in my own double bed
I've got a real friend in the law
I've got a friend in jesus
But we're just good friends you see
Cos I'm in love with the sweet black angel
I know he's coming after me
In love with the sweet black angel
In love with the sweet black angel
I'm in love with the sweet black angel
I know he's coming after me
