Council Specs (and loan shark dinners)

Folder: 
Our Fold Songs

Young boys and girls in riflemen`s jackets,

Buying their drugs and kicking no habits.

Pregnant teens diseased all scour,

Watching their repeats for hours and hours and hours.



Council specs and loan shark dinners,

Chopped up snow for all you beginners,

Screwed up tissue in your trouser pocket,

Pray the blood`s not from your eyeball socket.



Can of Special Red in your crippled hand,

Bury your head deeper in the sand,

Oh get a grip lad, you`re wasting your time,

Line after line oh you`re cutting it fine.

I said you`re cutting it fine.



Council specs and loan shark dinners,

Chopped up snow for all you beginners,

Screwed up tissue in your trouser pocket,

Pray the blood`s not from your eyeball socket.



It`s back to the drawing board for all concerned.

Except for me, i watched and learned.

Forget about fashion, now it`s tongies for you.

And now your eyes are dim, you find it hard to look through.....
