Mile End - Pulp (纸浆乐团)

Written by：Nick Banks/Jarvis Cocker/Candida Doyle/Steve Mackey/Russell Senior/Mark Webber

We didn't have no where to live

We didn't have nowhere to go

'Til someone said

I know this place off Burditt Road

It was on the fifteenth floor

It had a board across the door

It took an hour to pry it off and get inside

It smelt as if someone had died

The living room was full of flies

The kitchen sink was blocked

The bathroom sink not there at all

Ooh it's a mess alright

Yes it's Mile End

And now we're living in the sky

I'd never thought I'd live so high just like heaven

If it didn't look like hell

The lift is always full of piss

The fifth floor landing smells of fish

Not just on Friday every single other day

Below the kids come out tonight

They kick a ball and have a fight

And maybe shoot somebody if they lose at pool

Ooh it's a mess alright yes it's Mile End

Oo ooh nobody wants to be your friend

Cause you're not from round here

Ooh as if that was

Something to be proud about

The pearly king of the Isle of Dogs

Feels up children in the bogs

Down by the playing fields

Someone sets a car on fire

I guess you have to go right down

Before you understand just how how low

How low a human being can go

Ooh it's a mess alright yes it's

Mile End

Don't do that

Leave it out
