Letra Mile End de Pulp original

We didn't have no where to live, / we didn't have nowhere to go / 'til someone said /

A board across the door. / it took an hour / to pry it off and get inside. / it smelt as

/ and now we're living in the sky! / I'd never thought I'd live so / high, / just like

Mile end. / (don't do that! leave it out!) / bababa... / lalala...
