lyrics

I’m moving to the Heart of Darkness
I’m sure that I’m gonna fit right in
Cos North London – it never suited me
And don’t ever let ‘em tell you that it did
My memory’s selective – there are holes and doubts
But I’ve got it all mapped out
SE5 won’t know what’s hit it now, so...

(Don’t fight...)
Let’s sort it all out in the bedroom

Forget your postcode wars
And find something that’s worth fighting for now
Hey, if you think that I’m a mess
Well, you should see the other guy
He’s three storeys high and rising
With all the smoke from SE17
Do you wanna join my team?
Your friends won’t know what hit ‘em now, so...

(Don’t fight...)
Let’s sort it all out in the bedroom
No guns, no bombs, no protest songs!

I kind of knew that this would happen

I kind of sensed that this would happen
That we’d forget
The lost respect
And we’d regret
That tawdry affair in Lorrimore Square
Don’t you love when a plan starts coming together?
Dish out what you get
My urban marionette
Well, I had a plan and now it’s coming together
It’s taken some time
But we’re doing fine
So it’s all back to mine
I-I-I’ll race you
