ian dury the blockheads - upminster kid lyrics
when i was fifteen i had a black crepe jacket and sideboards to my chin
i used to go around in a two-tone zephyr with a mean and nasty grin
twelve-inch bottoms on my stardust flares and socks of dazzling green
well gene vincent craddock remembered the love of an upminster rock ‘n’ roll teen
well the silver-dollar hairstyle been cut down, oooooh
with a silver-dollar hairstyle been cut down
amazing that the feeling’s still around
my good friend friar wore a powder-blue suit with criss-cross lurex thread
he turned seventeen bought a big motorcycle and started wearing leather instead
i could not afford a ruby snaffle tie or black suede clubbing shoes
well gene vincent craddock, the people still move
over when the upminster kid walked through
with a silver-dollar hairstyle, been cut down, oooooh
a silver-dollar hairstyle, been cut down
amazing that the feeling’s still around
sunday afternoon at the romford geumont, alternte version ‘strolling
down the road with my tight-sweater baby’
rum and black at the bell hotel
he? d strole into the park, for a chumber in the dark, little juvenile never-do-well
he’d run a steel comb along the regent jukebox, a little bit of thieving now and then
well gene vincent craddock remembered to look on an upminster kid again
alternate version well gene vincent craddock i surely wish i were a upminster kid again
well the silver-dollar hairstyle been cut down, ooooh
the silver-dollar hairstyle been cut down
amazing that the feeling’s still around
with a silver-dollar hairstyle, been cut down
with a silver-dollar hairstyle, been cut down
amazing that the feeling’s still around
