Lyrics Toy Dolls – Livin’ On Newton Hall

Text:

A thousand streets of 2 bedroom semis
We always dreamed that we’d have one o’these
Oh what a pity they were built by Wimpey’s

That common lot drove us round the bend

So we moved up to Durham’s posh end
The likes of us don’t need no council dives
This is the sound of our sorry lives

We’re all livin’ on Newton hall, Newton hall, Newton hall
We’re all livin’ on Newton hall, Newton hall, Newton hall
Now

Oi! Look what I’ve got, a new Mondeo
I polish it but it’s only for show
I tell myself that we’re middle class
He walks around with his head up his arse

Livin’ on Newton hall, livin’ on Newton hall
Where would we be if not here
Livin’ on Newton hall, livin’ on Newton hall
Where would we be if not here

Newton hall, Newton hall (Newton hall)
Gotta get away from Newton hall
Right now

A thousand streets of shoe box semis
It’s a nightmare livin’ in one o’these
We never dreamed it would end up like this
This housing estates just takin’ the piss

Livin’ on Newton hall, livin’ on Newton hall
Where would we be if not here
Livin’ on Newton hall, livin’ on Newton hall
Where would we be if not here
Livin’ on Newton hall, livin’ on Newton hall

Where would we be if not here
Livin’ on Newton hall, livin’ on Newton hall
Where would we be if not here
Livin’ on Newton hall
