Lyrics
Cheap Day Return
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.
On Preston platform do your soft shoe shuffle dance.
Brush away the cigarette ash that's falling down your pants
And then you sadly wonder does the nurse treat your old man the way she should.
She made you tea, asked for your autograph - what a laugh.
