white heat

down between the sunbeams, the money lenders chat, hiding in the shade, outside a council flat, kids in the lift, looking for things to throw, and practising their aim, on the heads below, make their apologies, with the quickness of their feet, then lost in the heat haze, that shimmers across the street, underfoot, the pavement is melting, crumbling, for the luckiest girl, the whole world is melting, but i'm still not in, till a week next wednesday, i'm holidaying on the roof, till the big bad wolf goes away, in the street, the pavement is melting, crumbling, for the luckiest girl, the whole world is melting, white heat, turns the street, upside down, down between the sunbeams, the debt collectors chat, hiding in the shade, outside a council flat, by the hairs on my, chinny chin chin, i shall not let you in, n the street, the pavement is melting, crumbling, for the luckiest girl, the whole world is melting, for the luckiest girl, white white heat
