Once upon a time
Days of wine and roses
And smug suburban swine
Same old song, same old cabaret

A fairy tale in Notting Hill
Take your partners for the standing still

Once upon a time
Not so happy ending
For the Mersey and the Tyne
Who said the story had to end this way?

A fairy tale in Beeston Hill
Take your partners for the standing still
