Pearl City
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In pearl city
Pearl city
No-one knows, no-one cares
About your world of stocks and shares
I don't need no riding crop
I don't need no roundabout stop
You're welcome to pearl city
See the bank
Bright white trains
You old coots
Retired early
At pearl city
In pearl city
Cappuccino and a slice of quiche
It's salad for the new educated 'teach'
Everything is gonna work out fine
They're sleepin' us in the lec-lecturer line
In pearl city
In pearl city
Ye over-counter drugs
Have left you totally bushwhacked
In pearl city
We asked vauxhall drivers
What they wanted from a garage
Did ya? did ya?
At service center on the rock
Pearl city
I don't need a bird beggin at my knees
I don't need no riding crop
I don't need no roundabout stop
(are you on the ball?)
