Lyrics Dagenham Dave - The Stranglers
Dave
was
from
out
of
town
Manchester′s
likely
too
Had
read
De
Sade
to
Marx
More
read
than
me
and
you
Scaffolding
pays
good
bread
It
pays
for
drugs
and
kicks
Dave
only
had
one
love
Had
no
real
need
for
chicks
Dave
was
so
far
ahead
But
now
he's
dead
I′m
not
going
to
cry
I
bet
he
hit
that
water
high
I
guess
he
lost
control
And
welcomed
in
the
night
It
was
too
much
for
him
What
were
his
thoughts
that
night?
The
River
Thames
is
cold
It
keeps
on
flowing
on
But
it
left
Dave
alone
It
just
kept
flowing
on
There's
city
sickness
here
But
now
he's
dead
Late
night
a
street
in
the
west
of
the
city
There
was
a
place
there
where
he
lost
himself
Strange
feelings
did
he
feel
there
Strange
people
did
he
meet
there
Angry
sounds
did
he
hear
there
Like
the
howling
of
bulls
