I was born
under a wandering star
In the second council house
A Virgo
Forcibly removed
from the belly of my Ma
and raised on milk
and Pernod
So just lie back
and think of England
Cause I've slid down banisters
for judges and barristers
readers wives husbands
with toothless decay
I've been GBH'd
and ABH'd
for a packet of B&H
I've been taken
and I've been driven away
I was fornicating before I could read or write
and now I can't stop sir
I graduated from the University of Life
and the School of Hard Knocks, sir
And my telephone is always ringing...
and my number
is triple X directory
dial 0-8-9-8 treble 3
Talk dirty to me!
Oh come, all ye unfaithful
joyful triumphant and pathetically weak
I've been Amsterdamned
and Reaperbahned
wham-bam-no-thank-you-m'ammed
If the spirit is willing
than the telephone is cheap
and if you wanna step outside, love
you can step outside love, with me
you can step outside with me
And if we ever meet again
I don't know where
and I don't care when
I'm gonna help you with your sickness
Like a Jehovah's Witness
you'll be born again and again and again
so just lie back
close your eyes
and think of England
and what England's done to me
