Plastic Gangster |
I come from south London I think I’m cool |
I wear a cheap crombie and that’s about all |
I go down the pub with all the lads |
Their wearing their chains that they got from their dads |
But all I got was a rotten cheap chain |
My wife’s got in debt with the club book again |
I’m a plastic gangster |
They call me a crown and anchor |
I asked one of my mates to get me some books |
About the East End their gangs and their crooks |
I bought a cheap car from one of the lads |
He got it cheap from his car dealing dad |
I’m in my new car, I’m driving it home |
The next thing I know the engine has blown |
I went down the West End, the local was drag |
I had to pay a tenner to go with some bag |
I took her home to her place I gave her some stick |
The next thing I know the old bag was sick |
I stay at home on Thursdays, minders on TV |
I’m learning Cockney rhyming slang of to a tee |
So when I go out on Fridays I know what to say |
I wish I was like Arthur and get my own way. |
