Portobello Road |
Getting hung up all day on smiles |
Walking down portobello road for miles |
Greeting strangers in indian boots, |
yellow ties and old brown suits |
Growing old is my only danger |
Cuckoo clocks, and plastic socks |
Lampshades of old antique leather |
Nothing looks weird, not even a beard |
or the boots made out of feathers |
I’ll keep walking miles til I feel |
a broom beneath my feet |
or the hawking eyes of an old stuffed bull across the street |
Nothings the same if you see it again |
it’ll be broken down to litter |
Oh, and the clothes |
everyone know that that dress will never fit her |
Getting hung up all day on smiles |
Walking down portobello road for miles |
Greeting strangers in indian boots, |
yellow ties and old brown suits |
Growing old is my only danger |
Cuckoo clocks, and plastic socks |
Lampshades of old antique leather |
Nothing looks weird, not even a beard |
or the boots made out of feathers |
I’ll keep walking miles til I feel |
a broom beneath my feet |
or the hawking eyes of an old stuffed bull across the street |
Nothing’s the same if you see it again |
It’ll be broken down to litter |
Oh, and the clothes |
everyone know that that dress will never fit her |
Getting hung up all day on smiles |
Walking down portobello road for miles |
Greeting strangers in indian boots, |
yellow ties and old brown suits |
Growing old is my only danger |
