everything but the girl - oxford street lyrics
when i was ten, i thought my brother was god
he’d lie in bed and turn out the light with a fishing rod
i learned the names of all his football team
and i still remembered them when i was nineteen, yeah
strange the things deal that i remember still
shouts from the playground when i was home and ill
my sister taught me all that she learned there
when we grew up, we said, we’d share a flat somewhere
when i was seventeen, london meant oxford street
where i grow up, there were no factories
there was a school and shops and some fields and trees
and rows of houses one by one appeared
i was born in one and lived there for eighteen years
then when i was nineteen, i thought the humbler would be
the gateway from my little world into the real world
but there is no real world
we live side by side and sometimes collide
when i was seventeen, london meant oxford street
it was a little world, i grew up in a little world
there is no real world
we live side by side and sometimes collide, yeah
