lyrics

The boys are waiting outside Liverpool Street Station. 2 hours late, I could never take the early boozing. Leaves me dazed and confused before the darkness falls.

State of play, a few beers here then on our way up to Brown’s for some strip downs and clowning around. Jimmy pulls out his card and lets the bar know he got paid today.

Bouncers surround us, square everyone up and down and warn us now, ‘keep your hands to yourself,’ these guys, they ain’t messing around.

Hanging out at Brown’s. Hanging out at Brown’s.

Inside left to right, it’s all fellas. City cats flashing cash, suited and booted storytellers. Eagle-eyed, squinting blind up at the stage lights.

Yuppies don’t mind me, I’m here for the ladies and some old-fashioned bloke conversation about ins and outs and ups and downs of stripper dating.

Hanging out at Brown’s. Hanging out at Brown’s.

Spotlight falls upon the stage as shadows mask the dancer’s face. I count out all I have in change and dodge the looks that come my way from the private dancers as lonely-hearted office chancers cave.

A hand taps softly across my arm, hot breath stinging, I swing around to the smiling girl no older than me with perfect eyes and perfect teeth wearing barely a thing, I don’t know where to look, so I look down.

My face burns red, ‘You’re quiet,’ she says. I mumble something underneath my breath. My friends all laugh at my expense as Jimmy steps in and slips her ten of his best. She grabs my hand and leads me back where we can be alone.
