First up was the bucket shop To pick the pieces of your life up And scream looking back At all that you despise
You're thinking back to the chicken shack And the smashing of the glass And the knife in the back, well My boy who will believe your lies All of your lies
And no one's going to sell you any alibis A-li-bis
You dirty small town girls How I wish you were here now And show me how to be a man As only you can, as only you can My White City girl
Someone said you were an angel Only what kind of angel Would whisper hello, and shout goodbye My White City girl
I've seen a new girl down And one too many times it chills my bones To sing back to them I'm this aching heart of mine
You said you lived your life by the albion queen So pure in thoughts and word and deed Well but oh my boy what did you gain?
(?) And holes in the heels of your cowboy boots That makes you'll never forget your name Or all your lies And no one's going to sell you any alibis A-li-bis
