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. |
