Angels with dirty faces

Angels with dirty faces Playing leap frog in the yard Ripped jeans and tatty trainers Chewing gum and acting hard Telling tales out of school Riding bmx bikes on dirt tracks Chased by the farmer Who wants you off his land Back home for tea Watching the professionals and Miami vice On portable TV's in your bedroom As posters of Ultravox and Debbie harry Gaze down at you on the bed Zx81 computers so basic But amazing at the time No moble phones or internet 4 channels on tv Shutdown at midnight Then only the radio for entertainment The jam, the smiths, the stranglers New romantic , ska, mod and punk They knew how to make tunes back then.
