One Summertime
You know the truth is told
In glances stolen
From another world
She's a detective
He's a defective
They were drinking undercover
Then he fucked her unprotected
She took his hand
Through the city of the damned
Where the greedy little parasites
Carve up the land
And the dreamers
Build their castle of dreams
In sinking sand
Drunk in your dreams
And your starting to stagger
Rungs on fire
All the way up Jacobs Ladder
DCS gave her hell today
What about him?
He'll be in heaven
After the next sip of gin
One summertime a lifetime ago
I was high where the Iso bars
Were low
In the humidity
I lost my virginity
To a girl on the heath
On the edge of infinity
You know the truth is told
In glances stolen
From another world
His hearts unmanned
Like the DLR
Every time she gets into
An unmarked car
Unplanned
Just like all journeys should be
He met her riding
South on the Jubilee
After slinging yayo
At the foot of the Shard
Forget all about calling
Her a pearl
Just top-up
Your Oyster card
One summertime a lifetime ago
I was high where the Iso bars
Were low
In the humidity
I lost my virginity
To a girl on the heath
On the edge of infinity
One summertime a lifetime ago
I was high where the Iso bars
Were low
In the humidity
I lost my virginity
To a girl on the heath
On the edge of infinity
One summertime a lifetime ago
I was high where the Iso bars
Were low
In the humidity
I lost my virginity
To a girl on the heath
On the edge of infinity
In glances stolen
From another world
She's a detective
He's a defective
They were drinking undercover
Then he fucked her unprotected
She took his hand
Through the city of the damned
Where the greedy little parasites
Carve up the land
And the dreamers
Build their castle of dreams
In sinking sand
Drunk in your dreams
And your starting to stagger
Rungs on fire
All the way up Jacobs Ladder
DCS gave her hell today
What about him?
He'll be in heaven
After the next sip of gin
One summertime a lifetime ago
I was high where the Iso bars
Were low
In the humidity
I lost my virginity
To a girl on the heath
On the edge of infinity
You know the truth is told
In glances stolen
From another world
His hearts unmanned
Like the DLR
Every time she gets into
An unmarked car
Unplanned
Just like all journeys should be
He met her riding
South on the Jubilee
After slinging yayo
At the foot of the Shard
Forget all about calling

Just top-up
Your Oyster card
One summertime a lifetime ago
I was high where the Iso bars
Were low
In the humidity
I lost my virginity
To a girl on the heath
On the edge of infinity
One summertime a lifetime ago
I was high where the Iso bars
Were low
In the humidity
I lost my virginity
To a girl on the heath
On the edge of infinity
One summertime a lifetime ago
I was high where the Iso bars
Were low
In the humidity
I lost my virginity
To a girl on the heath
On the edge of infinity
