Thinking of
poems of poverty
Sitting with a tight
clenched wrist,
thinking how to
gain authority
Oh what a soft touch
of a boy
He'd wander with pride
to sell and keep
visions to hisself
Visions to hisself
We'd talk of treasures
and overrated games
We'd steal
the milk bottles,
sneaking through the
back round Jimmy's way
What we loved most
of all was sitting
round the shop
While this young boy
was sitting all alone,
sitting all alone
Ta di dah!
Pondering times
of sanctuary
He was taking his
piano lessons,
we were on half an 'E'
Invested life in medicine
which isn't the
wisest way to go
Had so much
sh*t going on
Convinced he'd
never win
Convinced he
was a sin
We'd speak of women
and cheaper carryouts
We'd turn up to
all the festivals,
trying to bring
down the touts
What we love
most of all was
sittin' round the shop
While this poor boy
was sittin' all alone
Sittin' all a
We'd talk of treasure
and overrated
ga-a-a-a-ames
We'd steal the
milk bottles,
sneaking through the
back round Jimmy's way
What we loved
most of all was hanging
round the shop
While this young boy
was sitting all alone
He didn't find none
of his own kind
He didn't have none
of his own kind
You should take
interest in his mind,
not spend all
of his time
Wastin' all his money
and his time
Thinking of poems
of poverty
Sitting with a tight
clenched wrist
thinking how to
gain authority
Oh what a soft touch
of a Don
He'd wander with
pride to sell and keep
visions to hisself
Visions to hisself
We'd talk of treasure
and overrated
ga-a-a-a-ames
We'd steal the
milk bottles,
sneaking through the
back round Jimmy's way
What we loved
most of all was
hanging round
the shop
While this young boy
was sitting all alone
Sitting all a
We'd talk of treasure
and overrated
ga-a-a-a-ames
Steal the milk bottles,
sneaking through the
back round Jimmy's way
What we loved
most of all was
hanging round the shop
What we loved
most of all was
waiting round the shop
What we loved
most of all was
sitting round the shop
What we loved
most of all was hanging
round the shop
where this young boy
was sitting all alone
