Lyrics for Respectable Street by Xtc:
| | | Artist: | Xtc |
| | Album: | Black Sea | | Track: | Respectable Street | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 279 | | | | Lyrics: | It's in the order of their hedgerows
it's in the way their curtains open and close
it's in
the look they give you down their nose
all part of decency's jigsaw I suppose
Heard
the neighbour slam his car door
don't he realise this is respectable street
What d'you
think he bought that car for
'cos he realise this is respectable street
Now they
talk about abortion
in cosmopolitan proportions to their daughters
as they speak of
contraception
And immaculate receptions on their portable
Sony entertainment
centres.
Now she speaks about diseases
and which sex position pleases best her old
man
Avon lady fills the creases
when she manages to squeeze in past the caravans
that
never move from their front gardens.
It's in the order of their hedgerows
it's in
the way their curtains open and close
it's in the look they give you down their nose
all
part of decency's jigsaw I suppose
Sunday church and they look fetching
Saturday night saw
him retching over our fence
bang the wall for me to turn down
I can see them with their
stern frown
as they dispense the kind of look that says
they're perfect | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
