Mapside Story

[Chorus: Lava La Rue, Nige] West side of the River Thames We like to keep it naughty Come on, come on From Kilburn High to Littlefair They're hardly saying 'Oh Please' Woo Aha West side of the River Thames We like to keep it naughty Oh, eh [?] for the Ten (Eh, eh, oh) The kids are very naughty (Ha, ha, ha) Ow! (Ahem) [Refrain: Nige] Alright See sometimes things aren't quite as they seem Nice street, nice folk But you don't see the smokers lining up 'round the corner Queuing for their two-one-two Normal neighbourhood But all of a sudden my schoolmates are pushing prams Well someone's been bagged Gone and done a nasty scam Burned out fans See its not all quite what it seems I used to bash heads as a young man Now I serve Posta tea to local nans Do shows when I can So don't take life for a simple black-and-white affair Think you know left from right Turns out you don't know what's where Used to fancy her like mad, now she's looking like a Mayor I used to rate my man, and now he does spice on the stairs What a sorry affair So I don't really know my ass from my elbow half the time I keep my head down and live the life I wanna lead But for all the monotony and tedium you see in your day-to-day Just know, it's not quite what it seems [Chorus: Lava La Rue] West side of the River Thames We like to keep it naughty Come on, come on From Kilburn High to Littlefair They're hardly saying 'Oh Please' Woo Aha West side of the River Thames We like to keep it naughty Oh, eh [?] for the Ten The kids are very naughty Ow!
