Bethnal Green Songtext
von Home Counties

Went to Bethnal Green tube station
Money in my hand, gave him nothing but a smile
Oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no

I was walking down Hackney Road
Block of flats turned into a second home
You know
You know, you know, you know
And you′ve always known

I was thinking, thinking I needed it
Cos I was feeling, feeling so out of it
I was dreaming, dreaming of bigger things
I was digging too deep when I found you
I found you place called home

Went to Bethnal Green postal code
Got too gentrified and it lost its soul, oh no

I need, I need a reason, just give me some completion

I was walking on way down south
Came across a placard saying "yuppies out", you know


Just say you don't contest me, just say you won′t forget me

Went to Bethnal Green tube station
Money in my hand, couldn't look him in the eye
Oh no

I was walking down Hackney Road
Bought a second flat
How dare you tell me how to feel about that
How dare you tell me how to feel about that
How dare you tell me how to feel

I was feeling, feeling so out of it
I was dreaming

I was thinking, thinking I needed it
Cos I was feeling, feeling so out of it
I was dreaming, dreaming of bigger things
I was digging too deep, too deep
And I was thinking, thinking I needed it
Cos I was feeling, feeling so out of it
I was dreaming, dreaming of bigger things
If I say I'm sorry then I′m sorry
I′m sorry surely?
