Mary's selling flowers |
|
On a stall in ec1 |
|
Tonight she'll be out looking for some fun |
|
Her mate gerry's in the basement |
|
He hasn't got a home |
|
But prides himself that he's got most things done |
|
Meanwhile i'm up on the roof |
|
Waiting for the sun to shine |
|
I haven't got an excuse |
|
So i'll just keep my head down |
|
David's in the city |
|
He's just made a deal |
|
And the boys they want to take his trousers down |
|
So they buy some little pills |
|
Which will make poor david ill |
|
And the find themselves in some club downtown |
|
Meanwhile i got off the roof |
|
'cos the rain keeps pouring down |
|
And i haven't got a clue |
|
Why there's faith in all these clowns |
|
This is the modern world... |
|
Jim and jane hit the grapevine |
|
'cos they're looking for a party |
|
A secret number knows where it can be found |
|
So they pick up pete and sheila |
|
And they head down the m40 |
|
But someone said they closed the country down |
|
Meanwhile i've locked myself in the kitchen |
|
Waiting for the storm to pass |
|
And if there's too much damage |
|
I think i'll get the fuck out fast |
|
This is the modern world... |
