Lyrics:
And here slip I Dragging one foot in the gutter In the midnight echo of the shop that sells cheap radios. And there sits she No bed, no bread, no butter On a double yellow line Where she can park anytime. Old Lady Grey; crash-barrier waltzer Some only son's mother. Baker Street casualty. Oh, Mr. Policeman Blue shirt ballet master. Feet in sticking plaster Move the old lady on. Strange pas-de-deux His Romeo to her Juliet. Her sleeping draught, his poisoned regret. No drunken bums allowed to sleep here in the crowded emptiness. Oh officer, let me send her to a cheap hotel I'll pay the bill and make her well - like hell you bloody will! No do-good over kill. We must teach them to be still more independent.
