ROUND OUR WAY

HARRISON

A SONG ABOUT GROWING UP ON CHELL HEATH. 

BUT COULD BE ABOUT THOUSANDS OF OTHER COUNCIL ESTATES AROUND THE COUNTRY IM SURE…HAZZA

HEAR NEXT DOOR THROUGH PAPER THIN WALLS

HIDING AWAY WHEN THE LOAN MAN CALLS

MISSING THE MILK AND NOT PAYING THE RENT

WONDERING WHERE ALL THE MONEY'S BEEN SPENT

LIVING ON BEANS AT 5 PENCE A GO

CLOTHES FROM THE JUMBLE, HOPE IT DOESN'T SHOW

CHECKING THE PAPERS AND PLACING THE BET

COULD DO WITH A WIN, UP TO THE NECK IN DEBT

CHORUS

ROUND OUR WAY X 4

HOUSES BOARDED UP, NO FIXED ABODE

DRUGS BEING PUSHED JUST DOWN THE ROAD

WINDOWS OPEN, REGGAE BLARING OUT

KIDS SMOKING DOPE HEAR THEIR MOTHER'S SHOUT

25 A SIDE FOOTBALL EVERY NIGHT

GANGS HANGING ROUND, LOOKING FOR A FIGHT

KICKED DOWN WALLS AND BROKEN GLASS

WHO SUFFERS THIS, JUST THE WORKING CLASS

CHORUS

MEN SO PISSED THEY CAN HARDLY STAND

WOMEN MOANING, GET THE BACK OF THE HAND

TIME FOR A QUICKIE, PUT HER IN THE CLUB

SHIT AND A SHAVE, BACK DOWN THE PUB

PAINT AND GRAFFITI SPLASHED ALL AROUND

SPEEDING CARS A FAMILIAR SOUND

GOT NO JOBS SO STAY IN BED

MONEY'S BEEN STOPPED WOULD BE BETTER OFF DEAD

CHORUS

NO SOCIAL PROBLEMS SAY POLITICAL POWERS

DON'T SEE THIS FROM THEIR IVORY TOWERS

(REPEAT TO END)
