Up The Junction - Squeeze[00:00:00]
Written by:Chris Difford/Glenn Tilbrook[00:00:00]
I never thought it would happen[00:00:12]
With me and the girl from clapham[00:00:14]
Out on a windy common[00:00:17]
That night I ain't forgotten[00:00:19]
When she dealt out the rations[00:00:21]
With some or other passions[00:00:23]
I said you are a lady[00:00:25]
Perhaps she said[00:00:27]
I may be[00:00:28]
We moved into a basement[00:00:33]
With thoughts of our engagement[00:00:35]
We stayed in by the telly[00:00:37]
Although the room was smelly[00:00:39]
We spent our time just kissing[00:00:41]
The railway arms were missing[00:00:43]
But love had got us hooked up[00:00:45]
And all our time[00:00:47]
It took up[00:00:48]
I got a job with stanley[00:00:53]
He said I'd come in handy[00:00:55]
And started me on monday[00:00:57]
So I had a bath on sunday[00:00:59]
I worked eleven hours[00:01:01]
And bought the girl some flowers[00:01:03]
She said shed seen a doctor[00:01:05]
And nothing now[00:01:07]
Could stop her[00:01:08]
I worked all through the winter[00:01:13]
The weather brass and bitter[00:01:15]
I put away a tenner[00:01:17]
Each week to make her better[00:01:19]
And when the time was ready[00:01:21]
We had to sell the telly[00:01:22]
Late evenings by the fire[00:01:24]
With little kicks inside her[00:01:26]
This morning at 450[00:01:32]
I took her rather nifty[00:01:34]
Down to an incubator[00:01:36]
Where thirty minutes later[00:01:38]
She gave birth to a daughter[00:01:40]
Within a year a walker[00:01:42]
She looked just like her mother[00:01:44]
If there could be[00:01:46]
Another[00:01:47]
And now she's two years older[00:01:52]
Her mothers with a soldier[00:01:54]
She left me when my drinking[00:01:56]
Became a proper stinging[00:01:58]
The devil came and took me[00:02:00]
From bar to street to bookie[00:02:02]
No more nights by the telly[00:02:04]
No more nights nappies smelling[00:02:06]
Alone here in the kitchen[00:02:11]
I feel theres something missing[00:02:13]
I'd beg for some forgiveness[00:02:15]
But beggings not my business[00:02:17]
And she won't write a letter[00:02:19]
Although I always tell her[00:02:21]
And so it's my assumption[00:02:23]
I'm really up the junction[00:02:25]
