Townabout

Like the jailbird said I went down 

Came from Derry like the Clown

All around town things coming back 

Like they used the Trevi Fountain bank

Porcine forces, portly faces 

Like animated white pudding 

If it’s not them it’s the racists 

Famously, it’s Deliveroo drivers 

Robbing teenagers with syringes 

At half five on a Friday, broad light of day

Guys standing outside Dr Quirky’s Arcade

Where a good game of Tekken used be played

They openly brandish anguish causing switchblades 

They wear two stripe tracksuit bottoms and leather jackets 

Type they get fitted in the mirror to hide their hammers.
