the real
The thief of Baghdad hides in Islington now
Praying deportation for his sacred cow
A legacy of romance from a twilight world
The dowry of a relative
peepshow, stereo hero.
Be calm, be still, bewitch, drowning, drowning in the real.
The thief of Baghdad hides in Islington now,
Praying deportation for
Girl Honorable
We Balla Like Di Pearl Some boy Dem A Lean Foot
Verse 2:
(Rockabessa) Islington Man Them A Gyal Thief, Haffi Sport
Road Like Banana
Push through the market square master your pride
Build a new home on shaky ground
In a pub in Islington I watched twin towers fall
With Karaoke all
Back to Islington Station, To the park right behind
Where we would laugh and get wasted, Shit faced and cover our eyes
From the truth we were running
Islington
Fire and fury a idz mi stad
Jebac trumpa jebac may I tusk
Zdmuchne tych lakow jak z szafy kurz
Jak nie masz co robic to wez cos stworz
Bong monks
at the OCAD
Sketchin' on the notepad
And paintin' bricks on Ossington, Islington and Eglinton
Back to the Junction
My home that's runnin'
North of the Ronces
Kenton south Woodford
Canary Wharf harrow & Wealdstone
North Acton north Ealing
North Greenwich north Harrow
North Wembley and highbury & Islington
On the 43 to Islington
Hop off Holloway to get that love
Nori transferring to Totty' like son
So I can slide in take these man out the game like
the soldiers pon the field me see the cops
Me know me warriors weh lock me head back
Day one nigga dem me big up miggy chops
From you say Islington you know say
Here comes another G-Wiz and Brett Grace dancehall classic
Cally Fest, Islington, N one
Hey Posy, Hey Mia, Hey Foo Foo, get your damn hands up!
a criminal
Islington Elthorne I'm telling you I've seen it all
And by year eight most my niggers they were leaving school
And how they felt? misunderstood
Now
Islington
Our dreams were fuelled by all these bands we've seen and heard
Their music gave us strength to put up with the world
My friends and I aren't cool
peepshow, stereo hero
Becalm, bestill, bewitch, drowning, drowning in the real
The thief of Baghdad hides in Islington now
Praying deportation for his
policy
to all who like it hard and fast.
outside: Islington.
smokers shielding squinting eyes.
inside: oblivion.
flipping beer mats in solitude.

Great is he
Great is he that walketh
Great is he great is heeee
cnd me say yow Enfield st Mary, cnnotto bay, Islington portmaria, Highgate.
join the impossible swing
And fall hard beside you
Screaming at the bowels of everything
And in the Islington morn
You're the angel of 8th
only shaking if the maker comes
My psycho therapist agrees
I'm twice removed and live in islington
Just take me seriously please
I want to know
of the class, we giggled, sniffing rush.
The best of friends, we rode the Islington bus.
Your gum was sweet but the chewing was tough.
I got drunk, I threw up
you're dancing
May they never see your green card smile like I do
Pulsating vampire bats
At the Islington automat
The molly's green
With Patrick's
