Lyrics Peter Doherty – Lamentable Ballad Of Gascony Avenue

Oh, please
Won’t you bury mine for me?
Yeah, I’m all broken up now
I could use

Now there’s nothing in this world
I’m afeared of, not like your sorrow
But never show
How am I supposed to know?
I should have read the warning signs
All over town were the warning signs

Oh, per favor
Won’t you explain it to me?
How the economy
Pulls apart community?

But there’s nothing in this world
I’m afeared of, not like the sorrow
The sorrowful cries
Of a community as it dies
Priced out of town
And a tower burns down
Priced out of town
And London burned down

There’s still nothing in this world
I’m afeared of, not like your sorrow
Lots of girls besides
I’d like to be besides, besides the seaside
Far from the seaside

I’ll have a full English Brexit please and a
Nice cup of tea yeah forget about it

There are a lot of girls besides
She like to be besides
Besides the seaside
Besides the sea
And I do like to bowl along the Om Prom Prom
With a lovely view far from Gascony Avenue
