Summer Pudding

This road's ghostly
Straight as the dead
Closed-down buildings
Closed down
Closed down

In 1960
Cafes steamed and glowed
Transport thundered
Not now
Not now

Once you could rely on British food
Distinctive
The worst in the world
Now it's all the same
An American chain has done away with lemon meringue

Pigeons nestle
On crimson PVC
Empty ashtrays
Closed down
Closed down

Once you could get any kind of food
Grilled or fried
The worst in the world
Now it's all the same
An American chain has done away with lemon meringue

Girls on two wheels
Swagger to the door
Toast and butter
Not now
Not now

Once there were just two flavours of food
Red or brown
The worst in the world
Now it's all the same
An American chain has done away with lemon meringue

Away with lemon meringue
Why did they do away with lemon meringue
