AlbionDown in AlbionThey'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 Anywhere in Albion Anywhere in Albion Anywhere in Albion Anywhere in Albion... Demo Version Down in Albion Ah, 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 Aah, gin in teacups And leaves on the lawn Violence in dole queues And the pale thin girl behind the checkout But if you're looking for a cheap talk Glint with perspiration There's a four-mile queue Outside the disused power station Now come away, won't you come away We'll go to Deptford, Digby... Anywhere in Albion Yellowing classics And canons at dawn ... Reebok classics And canons at dawn ... But if you're looking for a cheap sort That's in false anticipation It'll be waiting in the photo booth At the railway station Ah come away, won't you come away We're going to... Watford, London Fields Anywhere oh If you're looking for a cheap sort That's in false anticipation It'll be waiting in the photo booth At the underground station Oh come away, won't you come away |
