Beasley Street - Various[00:00:01]

Far from crazy pavements[00:00:18]

The taste of silver spoons[00:00:21]

A clinical arrangement[00:00:26]

On a dirty afternoon[00:00:28]

Where the fecal germs of Mr Freud[00:00:32]

Are rendered obsolete[00:00:36]

The legal term is null and void[00:00:39]

In the case of Beasley Street[00:00:43]

In the cheap seats where murder breeds[00:00:46]

Somebody is out of breath[00:00:50]

Sleep is a luxury they don't need[00:00:54]

A sneak preview of death[00:00:57]

Belladonna is your flower[00:01:01]

Manslaughter your meat[00:01:05]

Spend a year in a couple of hours[00:01:08]

On the edge of Beasley Street[00:01:11]

Where the action isn't[00:01:16]

That's where it is[00:01:19]

State your position[00:01:23]

Vacancies exist[00:01:26]

In an X-certificate exercise[00:01:29]

Ex-servicemen excrete[00:01:32]

Keith Joseph smiles and a baby dies[00:01:36]

In a box on Beasley Street[00:01:40]

From the boarding houses and the bedsits[00:01:44]

Full of accidents and fleas[00:01:47]

Somebody gets it[00:01:51]

Where the missing persons freeze[00:01:54]

Wearing dead men's overcoats[00:01:59]

You can't see their feet[00:02:02]

A riff joint shuts opens up[00:02:05]

Right down on Beasley Street[00:02:08]

Cars collide colors clash[00:02:13]

Disaster movie stuff[00:02:16]

For a man with a Fu Manchu mustache[00:02:19]

Revenge is not enough[00:02:23]

There's a dead canary on a swivel seat[00:02:26]

There's a rainbow in the road[00:02:30]

Meanwhile on Beasley Street[00:02:34]

Silence is the code[00:02:37]

Hot beneath the collar[00:02:49]

An inspector calls[00:02:52]

Where the perishing stink of squalor[00:02:55]

Impregnates the walls[00:02:59]

The rats have all got rickets[00:03:02]

They spit through broken teeth[00:03:06]

The name of the game is not cricket[00:03:09]

Caught out on Beasley Street[00:03:13]

The hipster and his hired hat[00:03:17]

Drive a borrowed car[00:03:20]

Yellow socks and a pink cravat[00:03:24]

Nothing la-di-dah[00:03:28]

OAP mother to be[00:03:31]

Watch the three-piece suite[00:03:34]

When shit-stoppered drains[00:03:38]

And crocodile skis[00:03:39]

Are seen on Beasley Street[00:03:41]

The kingdom of the blind[00:03:45]

A one-eyed man is king[00:03:49]

Beauty problems are redefined[00:03:53]

The doorbells do not ring[00:03:56]

A light bulb bursts like a blister[00:03:59]

The only form of heat[00:04:03]

Here a fellow sells his sister[00:04:06]

Down the river on Beasley Street[00:04:10]

The boys are on the wagon[00:04:14]

The girls are on the shelf[00:04:17]

Their common problem is[00:04:21]

That they're not someone else[00:04:24]

The dirt blows out[00:04:28]

The dust blows in[00:04:29]

You can't keep it neat[00:04:31]

It's a fully furnished dustbin[00:04:35]

Sixteen Beasley Street[00:04:38]

Vince the aging savage[00:04:42]

Betrays no kind of life[00:04:46]

But the smell of yesterday's cabbage[00:04:49]

And the ghost of last year's wife[00:04:52]

Through a constant haze[00:04:56]

Of deodorant sprays[00:04:58]

He says retreat[00:05:01]

Alsatians dog the dirty days[00:05:03]

Down the middle of Beasley Street[00:05:07]

People turn to poison[00:05:11]

Quick as lager turns to piss[00:05:13]

Sweethearts are physically sick[00:05:18]

Every time they kiss[00:05:22]

It's a sociologist's paradise[00:05:25]

Each day repeats[00:05:29]

On easy cheesy greasy queasy[00:05:32]

Beastly Beasley Street[00:05:36]

Eyes dead as vicious fish[00:05:40]

Look around for laughs[00:05:43]

If I could have just one wish[00:05:47]

I would be a photograph[00:05:49]

On a permanent Monday morning[00:05:53]

Get lost or fall asleep[00:05:56]

When the yellow cats are yawning[00:06:00]

Around the back of Beasley Street[00:06:04]
