It's a fine day[00:00:11]
And I'm ambling down the Kingsland Road[00:00:12]
Out to buy a paper and a microphone[00:00:14]
Around the way from my abode[00:00:16]
I spy a dude with a sandwich board[00:00:17]
He's talking about The End of The World[00:00:19]
It's coming from abroad apparently[00:00:21]
Which it might or mightn't be[00:00:22]
Figure me we should be looking closer to home[00:00:24]
I pass on anyway and keep my mouth shut[00:00:26]
Because there's not much point[00:00:28]
I spot a kid up on the corner[00:00:29]
And he's smoking a joint[00:00:31]
And from my own experience I know the coppers sound our way aint lenient[00:00:32]
But who am I to tell him how to live his life [00:00:36]
It's not like i ever listened as a younger[00:00:38]
Plus he's got a face like thunder[00:00:40]
I leave it[00:00:42]
And weave my way through ladies old and young and fat and falling[00:00:43]
Sun beams down it's a pretty lush morning[00:00:46]
But something's going down where they're waiting for their buses[00:00:48]
One lone bag is causing something of a ruckus[00:00:51]
Man sitting at the but stop[00:00:54]
Staring at his wristwatch[00:00:56]
Waiting for the bomb drop tick tock[00:00:58]
I was thinking of all the right things to say[00:00:59]
And the girls in the long socks[00:01:04]
Listening to their hi-top hip-hop[00:01:06]
Waiting for the bass-drop[00:01:08]
I was thinking of all the right things to say[00:01:10]
Curious approach a lady and I ask her [00:01:26]
Whargwarn [00:01:28]
She says there's a suspicious package and it might just be a bomb[00:01:28]
I think I've had it up to here with all these "suspicious packages"[00:01:31]
Makes as much sense as like "pissed off packages"[00:01:33]
Or packages that's "jealous" anyway she thinks it terrorists[00:01:37]
Like the whole town's teeming with "terrorists"[00:01:39]
Reds Under The Beds turned to terrorists rah though[00:01:42]
I'd like to point that out but she might think that I was mad[00:01:44]
So I don't say nothing about the fact that they're exaggerating[00:01:47]
How easy it is to control a terrified population[00:01:50]
How I think they're overstating every damn thing [00:01:52]
Anyway the crowd's increasing they're all pointing at this thing[00:01:55]
Just then a teenage girl wades through[00:01:57]
Grabs the bag waves to her crew:[00:01:59]
"I got it "[00:02:00]
Takes the phone out of the pocket[00:02:01]
Presses play then bops away[00:02:03]
The people stare then someone says:[00:02:04]
"What's that terrible tinny racket Stop it "[00:02:07]
Man sitting at the but stop[00:02:09]
Staring at his wristwatch[00:02:10]
Waiting for the bomb drop tick tock[00:02:12]
I was thinking of all the right things to say[00:02:14]
And the girls in the long socks[00:02:19]
Listening to their hi-top hip-hop[00:02:21]
Waiting for the bass-drop[00:02:23]
I was thinking of all the right things to say[00:02:25]
And when the lights go out in Highbury[00:02:31]
The library already burned and blown away[00:02:33]
It shouldn't matter now[00:02:41]
Who frightened me who lied to me[00:02:43]
At least we've got something to say[00:02:46]
Man sitting at the but stop[00:02:51]
Staring at his wristwatch[00:02:53]
Waiting for the bomb drop tick tock[00:02:55]
I was thinking of all the right things to say[00:02:57]
And the girls in the long socks[00:03:02]
Listening to their hi-top hip-hop[00:03:04]
Waiting for the bass-drop[00:03:05]
I was thinking of all the right things to say[00:03:07]
Man sitting at the but stop[00:03:13]
Staring at his wristwatch[00:03:14]
Waiting for the bomb drop tick tock[00:03:16]
I was thinking of all the right things to say[00:03:18]
And the girls in the long socks[00:03:23]
Listening to their hi-top hip-hop[00:03:25]
Waiting for the bass-drop[00:03:27]
I was thinking of all the right things to say[00:03:29]
