Sheila - Jamie T

Sheila goes out with her mate stella,
it gets poured all over her fella,
cos shes says, man he aint no better
than the next man kicking up fuss
drunk, she stumbles down by a river
screams calling london, (london)
none of us heard her coming,
i guess the carpet weren't rolled out

(Oh when my love, my darling,
You've left me here alone,
I'll walk the streets of London
Which once seemed all our own.

The vast suburban churches
Together we have found:
The ones which smelt of gaslight
The ones in incense drown'd)

Her lingo went from the cockney to the gringo
any time she sing a song, the other girls sing along
and tell all the fellas that that lady is single
a fickle way to tickle on my young mans ting
Shes up for doing what she like any day more like the night
she ground drunk the sorrows that she stole/brought/borrowed
She didnt like fights, but at the same time understood that
fellas will be fellas till the end of time

(Good heavens, you boys, cold blooded murder of the english tongue-Blap)

Jack had a gang that he called the many grams,
he was known as smack jack the cracker man
in life he was dealt some shit hands
but the boys got the back now
and jay went the same way as mickey and dan
dependant men upon the heroin,
and man lisa had a baby with sam,
and now jack on his own man,
well done jack, glug down that cider,
you're right shes a slut and you never fucking liked her
not like what he stopped so shocked
cos it turns out the last dance killed the pied piper,

So here’s a short story about the girl Georgina,
Never seen a worse, clean young mess
Under stress, at best but she’s pleased to see you
With love, God Bless, we lay her body to rest
Now it all there started with Daddy’s alcoholic
Lightweight, chuck it down, numbing his brain
And the doctor said he couldn’t get the heart der started,
Now beat up, drugged up, she feeling the strain
She said, “When I fall, no one catch me, alone lonely I'll overdoes slowly, get scared, I'll scream and shout"- But you know it don't matter she'll be pasing out,
I said gigidy-bigidy-up
Just another day
Another sad story that's tragedy -
Paramedics announced death at 10.30
Rip it up, kick it, spit out the views…
