| [00:47.320] |
I attended Stanley Tech |
| [00:52.400] |
In South Norwood Hill |
| [00:54.169] |
I think it was, oh yeah |
| [00:58.978] |
Where the bronze bust was nicked |
| [01:04.100] |
Let me think, it must've been in my third year |
| [01:10.607] |
Lying in wait outside Virgo Fidelis |
| [01:14.819] |
And the Lady Edridge Grammar School |
| [01:22.626] |
I worked at the Fairfield Halls |
| [01:27.740] |
Cleaning toilets, but I understood some day |
| [01:34.145] |
I'd be back in my own right |
| [01:39.257] |
Giving concerts in my own peculiar way |
| [01:46.062] |
But I kept my rabbit back at home |
| [01:50.253] |
And I cleaned it every other day |
| [01:53.359] |
(other day, other day, other day) |
| [01:58.471] |
And now the time has come to say |
| [02:01.470] |
Farewell Dad with your sardines |
| [02:03.539] |
And the TV set that I blew |
| [02:10.196] |
And now the time has come to say |
| [02:13.267] |
Farewell Mum to your baked beans |
| [02:15.331] |
And the poppadums I never knew |
| [02:21.521] |
I'll be in Los Angeles |
| [02:26.673] |
Where the famous people never quite get old |
| [02:33.062] |
Yeah, in Los Angeles |
| [02:38.438] |
Where they're all too rich to even feel the cold |
| [02:44.863] |
But I'll still be dreaming of you Croydon |
| [02:49.206] |
Especially in the cold and rain |
| [02:52.219] |
(cold and rain, cold and rain, cold and rain) |
| [02:57.369] |
And now the time has come to say |
| [03:00.327] |
I'll be leaving Croydon way |
| [03:02.458] |
To the lovely town I once knew |
| [03:09.099] |
And now the time has come to say |
| [03:12.157] |
I'll be back another day |
| [03:14.092] |
Saying sod LA, what a day |
| [03:20.391] |
What a day |
| [03:23.178] |
What a day |
| [03:26.066] |
What a day |
| [03:29.155] |
What a day |
