sudden sway - never in netherton lyrics

Loading...

[spoken intro]
[mick] stay here then, turn into zombies
[gasp]
[christine] ooh mick, is it really going to be that different somewhere else?
[trisha] what’s the matter with him, anyway?
[steve] listen mate, it might be a dump, but it’s home
[trisha] yeah!
[mick] not mine, it isn’t…

[song begins]

[mick]
never again, not ever in netherton
bye bye, the bamber street gang

[christine]
who all promised that they
would never leave netherton by going away

[chorus]
a hundrеd houses west by cycle routеway
theres a great and golden land beyond the railway
here, because it’s basically here
so climb up through the chimney and gaze with me
upon your neighbourhood community
[mick]
but i was only just a television supper
watching cushion covers play with another
so never again, not ever in netherton
i’m not a milky bar man

[christine]
no you’re a dead giveaway
together in netherton means always the same

[chorus]
cindy with her sun+lounge of meccano
will never send our windy house to harlow
hung, on a gate of a post+war pebbled estate
we ran away from school to the paddling pools
of atherstone avenue

[mick]
but i was on the outside
no time, no place, no date of birth

[christine]
there’s nothing wild or especially new
about a lodger in london who melts away in the multitude

[steve]
so off you go on your national bus
and when you’ve learned to live with us
[all]
we’ll be waiting in netherton
whitewashed and window+lened in netherton
in netheron, all mellow in moisture cream in netherton
in netherton, close your eyes and there’s morecombe & wise
in netherton, they’re planting far more roses than vines

[mick]
which is all very true, but what will you do
when house+prices all go up through the roof?
