Slumlord - Baxter Dury

Taps always dripping

Sleeping in the daylight

Leaning out of windows

Slumlord laughing

No one’s gonna say anything very nice

Charm dripping like fresh honey

I’m the milky bar kid

Soiled trousers

Shiny cheekbones like graveyards in the sun

Murder shoes

Dirty eyes sizing up

Taps always dripping

Sleeping in the daylight

Leaning out of windows

Slumlord laughing

No one’s gonna say anything very nice

Unless you got nothing to say

Just don’t say it

Sleepless angels have blessed us

And I’ll shout you down in a slumlord way

Scary people

Saying silly shit

Taps always dripping

Sleeping in the daylight

Leaning out of windows

Slumlord laughing

No one’s gonna say anything very nice

Shake it down

(Ha ha ha ha ha)

Shake it down

(Ha ha ha ha ha)

Shake it down

(Ha ha ha ha ha)

Shake it down

What you like about me

What you like about me

What you like about me

What you like about me

What you like about me

What you like about me

What you like about me

What you like about me

Taps always dripping

Sleeping in the daylight

Leaning out of windows

Slumlord laughing

No one’s gonna say anything very nice
