Belly baulking Ladbroke Grove
What a time to live
Palestinians, wheelchair blood
Just kill for Tel Aviv
Spanish stations still lament
What waging war on terror meant
A waste of women, a waste of men
Oh, what a time to live
Latte world in sun drenched Hove
What a time to live
Young mothers worship tiny brutes
At the church of tea and kids
The little shop across the road
Has recently been forced to close
There are bigger chains across the road
Oh, what a time to live
The car park drinkers on their seats
What a time to live
All kinds of beggars in the streets
And so much more to give
So cider splattered yellow lines
A real expensive glass of wine
And the buskers shouting "One more time"
Oh, what a time to live
Spanish stations still lament
What waging war on terror meant
A waste of women, a waste of men
Oh, what a time, what a time to live
