Croydon Tourist Office

Arriving at the town of Croydon
Intent on visiting and having a good old poke around
The museum of quilting
I discovered quite to my consternation
As I left the railway station
That I had no idea where the museum of quilting was

Well wouldn't you know it
I happened to notice the other side of the street
The gleaming facade of Croydon tourist office
So I went inside and
I asked the ladies in there
And they'd only been there a few moments after opening
How I could find the museum of quilting

Well she said
Um it's only my first day
But I believe if you
Turn left at the lights
Go down past the Tesco metro
And take a right just outside Poundland
You'll be somewhere in the town centre
It should be around there

There's um
There's like a pedestrianised area where sometimes we have um
Guests and vocals and all kinds of crazy things going on
But to be honest I don't really know where they museum of quilting is

So I left
I was apt to respond that maybe
There wasn't much information she was giving me
But anyway I found the museum of quilting
And had a good old look around
And did everything I needed to do and I
Got the hell out of there

Couple of months later
I was telling a friend about this
Admittedly not very interesting little anecdote
And um
He looked and me all quizzically and he said
What on earth has Croydon got a tourist office for?

I suppose they get tourists every now and then
Wouldn't want to stay there for the whole day
