The Kirkstall Road Girl - Jake Thackray[00:00:00]

Now that she’s the queen the Aphrodite[00:00:06]

Of the socialite magazines [00:00:10]

Though her photo’s à la mode [00:00:13]

We knew her before down the Kirkstall Road [00:00:17]

Those jewelled arms and neck that[00:00:22]

Taste of Chanel well [00:00:25]

When they were none so white [00:00:29]

All Kirkstall knew them well [00:00:31]

It’s marron glacé suppers now [00:00:34]

And Liebfraumilch before bed :[00:00:36]

Bye-bye chips and cocoa good-bye [00:00:40]

Jam and bread [00:00:43]

Now she’s a big-time girl bold as brass[00:00:46]

In the high-class social world [00:00:50]

She has worked at her Kirkstall style[00:00:53]

Now she’s got a Rolls-Royce voice[00:00:57]

And an E-type smile [00:00:59]

Pond Street flat now and small [00:01:03]

Fat men with cigars cigars[00:01:05]

No more scabby boozers only cocktail bars [00:01:08]

Languid postures with an Irish[00:01:14]

Wolfhound as décor cor [00:01:16]

No more manky mongrels sniff round[00:01:20]

Her back door [00:01:23]

No more lamp-post deals no more[00:01:26]

Rendezvouses down the rhubarb fields [00:01:29]

No more grind by the old canal [00:01:33]

No more of your back yard Bacchanales [00:01:37]

Spring collections on her back and a moue[00:01:42]

On her lips her lips her lips ooh[00:01:45]

When she was coarse and saucy [00:01:48]

At least she got her kicks [00:01:50]

And if her smile be snooty and[00:01:53]

Her eyes be blasé well [00:01:56]

At the Mecca Locarno they could[00:01:59]

Flash more enthusiastically [00:02:01]

Chic boutiquey clothes with her brand-new[00:02:05]

Hair and a brand-new nose[00:02:09]

Though she daubed herself with woad [00:02:12]

We’d still know that bird down the Kirkstall Road [00:02:16]

There’s lots as good as her down the Kirky Road [00:02:21]

But they don’t go away [00:02:27]

Thank The Lord they stay [00:02:30]

They’re better off any way[00:02:33]

Down the Kirkstall Road[00:02:35]
