Elephant & Castle
I never thought I’d leave my house and think "God what an awful place."
Drag my shattered body to the pub down the road I call the gaping black hole for debate.
You ask me once again “Why are you leaving?”
Then I tell you everything, but you won’t believe me
And I don’t know why
The landlord said it’s really nice.
But I should have told them no
In this part of town, you’ll see no products in the shops that you haven’t passed discarded on the floor.
Need to move or at least get out of the house, but on all my friends I’ve firmly closed the door.
They’d say, “Would you like to come to London Bridge it’s looking busy”?
“No, I’ll stay in E&C, watch a drunk set fire to a Mitsubishi”
You ask me once again “Why are you leaving?”
Then I tell you everything, but you won’t believe me
And I don’t know why
Lettings said it’s really nice.
But I should have told them no
