Intro: Fill#1  ( G C G G )

G
A mile and a half on a bus takes a long time
                                                C             
The odour of old prison food takes a long time to pass you by                                    
G
Day upon day of this wandering gets you down
                                         C
Nobody gives you a chance or a dollar in this old town
G
Hovering silence from you is a giveaway

Squalor and smoke's not your style

"I don't like this place"
C
We better go
G
Then I compare notes with your older sister
                                        C                 D   G   G
I am a lazy gett, she is as pure as the cold driven snow
G
What did you learn from your time in the solitary

Cell of your mind?
                                     C
There was noises, distractions from anything good

And the old prison food
G
Colour my life with the chaos of trouble

Cause anything's better than posh isolation
C
I missed the bus

You were laid on your back
                            D
With the boy from the arab strap
                            G
With the boy from the arab strap

G
It's something to speak of the way you are feeling

To crowds there assembled
                                   C
Do you ever feel you have gone too far?
G
Everyone suffers in silence a burden

The man who drives minicabs down in Old Compton
    C
The Asian man

With his love hate affair
                       D    
With his racist clientele
G
A central location for you is a must as you stagger about making free with your lewd and 
           C
lascivious boasts 
G
We know you are soft cause we've all seen you dancing 
                                                        C
We know you are hard cause we all saw you drinking from noon

Until noon again 
                               D
You're the boy with the filthy laugh
                              G
You're the boy with the arab strap

( G  C )

G
Strapped to the table with suits from the shelter shop
                                                   C
Comic celebrity takes a back seat as the cigarette catches

And sets off the smoke alarm
G
What do you make of the cool set in London?
                                                        C
You're constantly updating your hit parade of your ten biggest wanks
                         D
She's a waitress and she's got style
                            G
Sunday bathtime could take a while
