The V&A is tracing the history of Britain’s grassroots venues and club culture in new free display
The free London show gathers Oasis lyrics, a Blur set list and the Astoria's original sign.
Lyrics
Rosaleem of the Damascene Yes, she had eyes like the moon Would have been on the silver screen But for the missile monsoon
She went: ooh, ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh Indigo up in heaven today Ooh, ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh With bombs going boom ba-boom-boom She said
I want to know when I can go Back and get drunk with my friends I want to know when I can go Back and be young again
Baba would go where the flowers grow Almond and peach trees in bloom And he would know just when and what to sow So golden and opportune
He went: ooh, ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh Tulips the colour of honey today It's true, true, ooh, ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh With bombs going boom ba-boom-boom He said
Oh, I want to know when I can go Back and get drunk with my friends I want to know when I can go Back and be young again (Yeah)
Ooh, ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, oh-oh-oh, ooh Cherub seraphim soon Come sailing us home by the light of the moon
Oh, I want to know when I can go Back and get drunk with my friends I want to know when I can go Back and be young again
(Oh-oh, oh-oh ooh) I guess we'll be raised on our own, then (Oh-oh, oh-oh ooh) I want to be with you 'til the world ends I want to be with you 'til the whole world ends
Boom
