| Well, I was walking down the High Road
|
| And this guy stops me
|
| He’d just got in from New Zealand
|
| And he was looking for mushy peas
|
| I said, no, we hadn’t really got 'em round here
|
| I said, but we do got
|
| Balti, Bhindi, strictly Hindi
|
| Dall, Halal and I’m walking down the road
|
| We got rocksoul, okra, bombay duck-ra
|
| Shrimp beansprout, comes with it or without — with it or without
|
| Bagels soft or simply harder
|
| Exotic avocado or toxic empenada
|
| We got akee, lassi, Somali waccy baccy
|
| I’m sure back home you know what tikka’s all about — what tikka’s all about
|
| Welcome stranger, to the humble neighbourhoods
|
| You can get inspiration along the high road
|
| Hommus, cous cous in the jus of octopus
|
| Pastrami and salami and lasagne on the go
|
| Welcome stranger, there’s no danger
|
| Welcome to this humble neighbourhood
|
| There’s Balti, Bhindi, strictly Hindi
|
| Dall, Halal and I’m walking down the road
|
| Rocksoul, okra, bombay duck-ra
|
| Shrimp beansprout, comes with it or without
|
| So anyway, I told him I was in a band
|
| He said, «Oh yeah, oh yeah — what’s your music like?»
|
| I said, «It's um, um, well, it’s kinda like
|
| You know, it’s got a bit of, um, you know.»
|
| Ragga, Bhangra, two-step Tanga
|
| Mini-cab radio, music on the go
|
| Um, surfbeat, backbeat, frontbeat, backseat
|
| There’s a bunch of players and they’re really letting go
|
| We got Brit pop, hip hop, rockabilly, Lindy hop
|
| Gaelic heavy metal fans fighting in the road
|
| Ah, Sunday boozers for chewing gum users
|
| They got a crazy D.J. |
| and she’s really letting go
|
| Oh, welcome stranger
|
| Welcome stranger to the humble neighbourhoods
|
| Well, I say, there’s plenty of places to eat round here
|
| He say, «Oh yeah, I’m pretty choosy.»
|
