Down in Albion They're black and blue But we don't talk about that Are you from 'round here? How do you do? I'd like to talk about that
Talk over Gin in teacups And leaves on the lawn Violence in bus stops And the pale thin girl with eyes forlorn
More gin in teacups And leaves on the lawn Violence in dole queues And the pale thin girl Behind the checkout
If you're looking for a cheap sort Set in false anticipation I'll be waiting in the photo booth At the underground station
So come away, won't you come away We could go to... Deptford, Catford, Watford, Digberth, Mansfield Ahh anywhere in Albion
Anywhere in Albion Anywhere in Albion
Yellowing classics And canons at dawn Coffee wallahs and pith helmets And an English song
Mmm... Reebok classics And canons at dawn Terrible warlords, good Warlords And an English song
Oo if you're looking for a cheap sort All glint with perspiration There's a four-mile queue Outside the disused power station
Now come away, oh say you'll come away We'll go to... Satsworth, Senford, Weovil, Woomoyle, NEW-CAST-LE
If you are looking for a cheap tart Don't glint with perspiration There's a five-mile queue Outside the disused power station Now come away (away), won't you come away
We'll go to... Bedtown, Oldham, Nunthorpe, Rowlam, Bristol Aaa-nywhere in Albion
