22 Acacia Avenue Lyrics


If you're feeling down depressed

and lonely I know a place where

we can go, 22 Acacia Avenue,

meet a lady that I know.

So if you're looking for a good time

and you're prepared to pay the price.

Fifteen quid is all she asks for,

everybody's got their vice.

If you're waiting for a long time

for the rest to do their piece,

you can tell her that you know me

and you might even get it free.

So any time you're down the

East End, don't you hesitate to go.

You can take my honest word for it,

she'll teach you more than you can know.

Charlotte can't you get out

from all this madness?

Can't you see it only brings

you sadness?

When you entertain your men don't

you know the risk of getting disease?

Some day when you're

reach the age of forty,

I bet you'll regret the days

when you were laying.

Nobody then will want to know,

you won't have any beautiful

wares to show anymore.

22, the Avenue,

that's the place where we all go.

You will find it's warm inside,

the red light's burning bright tonight.

Charlotte, isn't it time

you stopped this mad life,

don't you ever think about

the bad times?

Why do you have to live this way,

do you enjoy your lay, or is it the pay?

Sometimes when your

strolling down the avenue,

the way you walk it make

men think of having you.

When you're walking down the street

everybody stops and turns to stare at you.

22, the Avenue,

that's the place where we all go.

You will find it's warm inside,

the red light's burning bright tonight.

Beat her, mistreat her,

do anything that you please.

Bite her, excite her, make her

get down on her knees.

Abuse her, misuse her,

she can take all that you've got

Caress her, molest her,

she always does what you want.

You're running away,

don't you know what you're doing?

Can't you see it'll lead you to ruin?

Charlotte, you've taken your life

and you've thrown it away.

You believe that because what

you're earning, your life's good,

don't you know that it's hurting

all the people that love you?

Don't cast them aside!

All the men that

are constantly drooling,

it's no life for you,

stop all that screwing.

You're packing your bags,

you're coming with me!
