Shiny Cage

Hiding faces turning pages

Still they read and read

Double deckers full of smokers

Look who's gone to seed



Well the sun's getting higher

Think I'll take a flyer

The thought of it's causing me pain

Ooh! Shiny Cage



Talk a walk under the subway

See an old school chum

Window shopping for a short while

Then we'll have some fun



Well the shops closing early

Everywhere's deserted

Hello and down comes the rain

Oooh! Shiny Cage



We'll do the town tonight

I know some girls then stop off for a bite

No strings to tie my kite

Well living for the night



No way to spend a life

Ooh!
