[Chorus]
King Street and Flinders
King Street and Flinders Lane
King Street and Flinders Lane
[Verse 1]
Selling drugs, there's lots of waiting
For custom or supply
Watching subtle signs emerging
Like a captain does the sky
Flinders Lane for fiteen hours
I scan each passer-by
Ninety-nine ignore or glower
One looks me in the eye
[Verse 2]
What I sell him is verboten
To those of you on land
At sea, too, our laws get broken
Though different things are banned
The two ways of living equal
In dullness and defeat
I ain't happy 'cept when speeding
Might move to Flinders Street
[Verse 3]
There used to be more business east
And south-west of Degraves Street
Then came all the cafes, chic
Like ships of an enemy fleet
There is a spot in Batman Park
The jacks can't find you in the dark
The silence there between the hiss
Of traffic noise is like a kiss
King Street and Flinders
King Street and Flinders Lane
King Street and Flinders Lane
[Verse 1]
Selling drugs, there's lots of waiting
For custom or supply
Watching subtle signs emerging
Like a captain does the sky
Flinders Lane for fiteen hours
I scan each passer-by
Ninety-nine ignore or glower
One looks me in the eye
[Verse 2]
What I sell him is verboten
To those of you on land
At sea, too, our laws get broken
Though different things are banned
The two ways of living equal
In dullness and defeat
I ain't happy 'cept when speeding
Might move to Flinders Street
[Verse 3]
There used to be more business east
And south-west of Degraves Street
Then came all the cafes, chic
Like ships of an enemy fleet
There is a spot in Batman Park
The jacks can't find you in the dark
The silence there between the hiss
Of traffic noise is like a kiss
