[00:29.790] Mornington Crescent
[00:33.420] I think of you
[00:36.750] Rain in the southeast
[00:40.280] Men feeling blue
[00:43.940] Men with their bowlers
[00:47.510] Kids with their spats
[00:51.130] Ladies with chauffeurs
[00:54.760] Dogs wearing hats and jackets
[01:00.100] Rich apartments
[01:03.580] Old punk posters
[01:07.160] Tartan garments
[01:09.610] I love the exquisite array
[01:16.510] I love the camp as camp parade
[01:23.850] The possibilities suggest themselves to me
[01:37.430] Mornington Crescent
[01:41.160] The sun in the east
[01:45.130] I’ve got a job on
[01:47.940] For a Senegalese rich arbitrator
[01:55.310] In African law
[01:58.850] To paint his apartment, strip down the walls
[02:05.390] Came down between us lately
[02:11.500] Lust and want and need just caved in
[02:17.890] ‘Is it wise?’
[02:20.260] The answer’s no
[02:24.200] It never is but since you ask
[02:32.790] We pause thoughtfully, for twenty seconds reprieve
[02:45.100] Then it’s off with the briefs
[03:59.840] Mornington Crescent
[04:03.450] Sin is my game
[04:07.570] We’ll all be lined up
[04:10.590] Irrelevant fame
[04:14.380] Next to the broker, the nurse and the drunk
[04:21.380] I was a joker, the wannabe punk that got lucky
[04:30.450] Had a good time
[04:33.950] Life became fruitless
[04:37.600] Egotistic swine to all your friends
[04:47.390] All the ladies and the men
[04:54.170] The possibilities suggest themselves to me
[05:07.390] We’re a little too free
[00:29.790] Mornington  Crescent
[00:33.420] I  think  of  you
[00:36.750] Rain  in  the  southeast
[00:40.280] Men  feeling  blue
[00:43.940] Men  with  their  bowlers
[00:47.510] Kids  with  their  spats
[00:51.130] Ladies  with  chauffeurs
[00:54.760] Dogs  wearing  hats  and  jackets
[01:00.100] Rich  apartments

[01:07.160] Tartan  garments

[01:58.850] To  paint  his  apartment,  strip  down  the  walls
[02:05.390] Came  down  between  us  lately
[02:11.500] Lust  and  want  and  need  just  caved  in
[02:17.890] ' Is  it  wise?'
[02:20.260] The  answer' s  no
