Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Down on the corner, under the railway
I hear the old people saying
It was better without you, babe
It was better without
[Verse 2]
You wanna live on Shouting Street?
Watch your Punjabi
You wanna bop it on Shouting Street?
Lay off me Biriani
[Verse 3]
Now take my motor
Now that's a bargain
No M.O.T.
And the what's-it needs welding
Tell ya who's gonna fix it for you
Tell ya who's gonna fix it for you
Take it over to Shouting Street
There'll be a geezer
He's got a shack on Shouting Street
One greasy geezer
[Verse 4]
He's got a real sideline
From Scandinavia
Where they understand
Things of that nature
[Verse 5]
Don't tell her that you got it from him
Oh, don't tell her that you got it from him
Say you got it out on Shouting Street
Say you found it in the garbage
Say you got it out on Shouting Street
Say you got it from Jim Jarmusch
[Verse 6]
Let me rock it out on Shouting Street
Just like Eddie Cochran
[Verse 7]
We've seen rough boys born of this manor
Always doin' their nuts when they don't have spanners
But just you wait till they've been away
Just you wait till they've been away
[Verse 8]
They'll be back down Shouting Street
Selling lady shavers
They'll be back down Shouting Street
They got good behavior
[Verse 9]
Oh, let me rock it out on Shouting Street
And borrow money from my neighbors
Oh, let me rock it out on Shouting Street
In fifty-seven flavors
