[01:10.27]Laughs and jokes
[01:11.52]And drinks and smokes
[01:13.72]And no lights on the stairs
[01:16.54]
[01:17.56]We were young, so young
[01:19.63]
[01:20.37]And always broke
[01:21.74]
[01:22.25]Not that we ever cared
[01:25.35]
[01:26.58]Not that we ever cared
[01:29.60]
[01:30.71]Well, the holes in the walls
[01:33.14]Were such a lot
[01:34.03]
[01:35.74]Welcome to London town
[01:37.33]
[01:39.29]But when you're new to it all
[01:41.48]And you think you're hot
[01:42.65]
[01:43.49]You're not planning on hanging around
[01:46.13]
[01:48.28]People would go on their different ways
[01:51.53]
[01:52.40]I left to start a band
[01:54.79]
[01:56.69]A note came through the letter box
[01:59.65]
[02:01.44]In your childlike hand
[02:03.67]
[02:04.93]Oh, laughs and jokes
[02:07.00]And drinks and smokes
[02:09.06]And no lights on the stairs
[02:12.21]
[02:13.03]We were young, so young
[02:15.62]And always broke
[02:17.76]Not that we ever cared
[02:20.68]
[02:21.66]Not that we ever cared
[02:24.82]
[02:26.14]One day I rode to where you were
[02:29.63]
[02:30.78]The doorbell jangled a note
[02:33.16]
[02:34.72]They buzzed me in
[02:36.18]
[02:36.93]I climbed the stairs
[02:38.52]
[02:39.09]In my boots and leather coat
[02:41.26]
[02:43.36]There's an old brass
[02:44.55]Standing there at the top
[02:46.71]
[02:47.85]Without her witch's broom
[02:50.33]
[02:52.14]It almost seemed like a knocking shop
[02:55.33]
[02:56.06]When the girls came out of their rooms
[02:58.83]
[03:00.19]And they all stood around
[03:02.55]And stared at me
[03:03.57]
[03:04.88]Two brunettes and a blonde
[03:06.88]
[03:09.70]Then the old brass shrugged and said
[03:12.35]
[03:13.41]We don't know where she's gone
[03:15.86]
[03:18.23]Later on I picked up the ball
[03:20.71]
[03:21.60]And I took off down the line
[03:24.43]
[03:26.02]I suppose by then I'd realised
[03:29.40]
[03:30.19]You'd run into hard times
[03:32.99]
[03:34.65]Oh, laughs and jokes
[03:36.74]And drinks and smokes
[03:38.82]And no lights on the stairs
[03:41.93]
[03:42.66]We were young, so young
[03:45.11]And always broke
[03:47.39]Not that we ever cared
[03:50.65]
[03:51.33]Not that we ever cared
[03:54.57]
