The scene is obscene
And Bill Bones
Set the night on fire
Well the stale chips are up and the hopes stakes are down
You know, I cherish you my love
Did you see the stylish kids in the riot?
A headrush in the bush
Shovelled up like muck
Tell me what can you want now you've got it all
Oh it's all
I sighed and sunken with pride
But there's a rumour spread nasty disease around town
A year and a day
Bill Bones, knows what I mean
Of an Englishman in a baseball cap
It's eating, it's chewing me up
He knows
Ohh, I cherish you my love
We'll die in the class we were born
A class of our own, my love
Set the night on fire
And its all up the walls
It's all trouble in my hands
And Bill Bones
Wombles bleed truncheons and shields
The scene is obscene
Time will strip it away
You know, I cherish you my love
Fever more distressing sights than that
You know I cherish you, my love
He knows
Well that's a class of our own, my love
Now tell me what can you want now you've got it all
It's not right for young lungs to be coughing up blood
Well, I passed myself down on my knees
It's only ignorant faces you bring this town down
Caught 'round the houses with your trousers down
Wombles bleed truncheons and shields
Time will strip it away
Bill Bones knows what I mean
Yes, I passed myself down on my knees
A year and a day
