2; 1, 2, 3, 4: There was a shop called Swanky Modes Just off the top of the Camden Road You walked past, I recognised you You screwed a guy then you killed him after In a film I'd seen about a week before Way, way, way back in the days of yore Nothing could touch you Or leave the slightest imprint upon you You just didn't care Your hair was the same Your face looked older And your clothes were grey Working in a friend's shop Trying to keep the dream alive I saw a guy shooting up on the tow-path He didn't even look up as the shoppers walked past I thought I heard him say "How about you get on this?" Yeah; well, how about you get on this? I can resist gentrification Letras de cancionesBut I cannot resist temptation You're carrying a basket When I next caught your eye A glint behind the clutter of a shop-soiled life Surely you could miss your appointment I'll try not to be one more disappointment It turned out you lived above the shop And that's why you worked there (No shit Sherlock) It was a very small flat, with a very narrow kitchen No need for further explanation You sat down on the work surface I got down to work on your surface I could hardly get my breath Toast crumbs like needles on the back of your legs Hey baby, well how about you get on this? Yeah, well how about you get on this? Well the crumbs left marks You tried to brush them off I tried to make tea But the milk was off And I forgot my shopping in my rush to get home In the days of VHS and casual sex Welcome to the peppermint jungle So glad that you could come for tea I know you like a bit of rough and tumble But you never left your mark on me Yeah Some fell by the wayside Some moved up to Teeside Some still scoring cocaine Some laid up with back pain Ain't it sad when your dreams outlast you? The things you do to make life go faster Working on a ringtone Working on a master plan When the next thing I heard Someone said you were dead So no more hot-knives Or setting fire to the bed But you were only ... Trying to keep the dream alive You tried to keep life at a safe distance But it's futile to offer resistance So how about you get on this? Oh ... How about you get on this So how about you get on this? (Get on this) How about you get on this (Get on this) How about you get on this (Get on this) From Letras Mania
