Track 5 of _Misplaced Childhood_
I) Wide Boy
Wide boys, wide boys, wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian
Wide boys, wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian
Wide boys, we were wide boys, born with hearts of Lothian
These hearts of Lothian
It's six o'clock in the tower blocks,
The stalagmites of culture shock, (culture shock)
And the trippers of the light fantastic, bowdown, hoedown
Spray their pheremones on this perfume uniform
And anarchy smiles in the Royal Mile
And they're waiting on the Slyboys, flyboys, wideboys
Rooting, tooting Cowboys, lucky little ladies at the watering holes
They'll score the Friday night goals
I was born, with a heart of Lothian
I was born, with a heart of Lothian
I was born, with a heart of Lothian
With a heart of Lothian
II) Curtain Call
And the man from the magazine,
wants another shot of you all curled up
'Cos you look like an actor in a movie shot
But you're feeling like a wino in a parking lot
How did I get here anyway?
Do we really need a playback of the show?
'Cos the wideboys want to head for the watering holes,
watering holes, watering holes
Let's go
And the man in the mirror has sad eyes
