Lyrics Over The Flats - T. Rex

Over The Flats

I was dragged here, from my old place
Turned from my old gang, given a new face
My old man loved it, he had his garden
He had his pompadours but, my reputation’s gone
Flats, over the flats, over the flats, over the flats
I miss my friend called Pete, he always looked so neat
He had those dancin' feet, how will we ever meet
Flats, over the flats, over the flats, over the flats
The chicks I used to know, will never see me grow
Will never grasp my hand, when I’m a fighting man
Flats, over the flats, over the flats, over the flats
Here no-one knows my name, people all look the same
I walk unnoticed steps, they don’t know my rep
Flats, over the flats, over the flats, over the flats
Well I was born to move, with fire in my shoes
I’m an unnoticed boy, just future’s toy
Over flats, over the flats, over the flats, over the flats
Over flats, over the flats, over the flats, over the flats
I’m just gone
