It's a mean old scene, yeah... Well they talked too much for (the) business The paper cried West End (western?) dream The council took it out every now and again (?) But it's the one place you can't clean (?) Stick your head up out of the parapet They're gonna rain (reign?) to shoot you down [aim makes more sense - but I'm sure I can hear an "r"] Bad stories in the clubs at night They're gonna rain (reign?) to shoot you down BD7, well I remember All the monsters and the cold October nights and endless rain Little cats running down into the shelter Matted fur (...) storm drained...?
