Mile End's A Part Of Me - Jamie Parker (Original)

My song I wrote about living in east London while at university, apologies for the dark room, my house has near to no light.

Lyrics:-


Ive got a tenner on my oyster, and in my head ive got a voice that, I can barely make out,
As the noise of the tube track, sounds out and echoes back, back, back, back down the tunnel.
I get off at the station, Bromley-by-bow, my ipod's in, im walking down mile end road,
And i get to my palace, well its probably more a slum, because sitting outside is jeff the local bum.

I was stumble ling home from drapers, drunk last night, tripping over cobbles under weak street lights,
And i woke up in the morning and my whole room was spinning, I still can't understand how Charlie Sheen thinks this is winning,
Ive got the hair of the dog, n my head in the bog, lasts night's antics are in a shroud of fog,
I think im gunna give tomorrow night a miss, cos i don't think my liver can take much more of this.

But i, i, don't mind, but i, don't mind,

Because I know it's not perfect, but its where I wanna be,
I think its safe to say now, that mile ends a part of me,
Its got its up and downs, from riots to red beer rounds,
But its all the same to me, because mile ends a part of me,

So I tell myself, I'm gunna go down the coborn, have a few and see the crew, but then I'm gunna come straight back,
Till i finish off my essay, on the sofa, with a crate, but I'll probably get distracted and hand it in late,
Then Phil turns up, still drunk, and looking like he's just been in a fight,
But he hit is head on a wall, after a trip and a fall, while chasing a fox down the road last night,

But i, i, don't mind, but i, don't mind,

Because I know it's not perfect, but its where I wanna be,
I think its safe to say now, that mile ends a part of me,
Its got its up and downs, from riots to red beer rounds,
But its all the same to me, because mile ends a part of me,

But iI know its all worth it, if i get my degree,
I think a firsts a little far off, but a 2/1 will do for me,
Of all the highs and lows, is dixey chicken, real chicken, no one knows,
But its all the same to me, because mile ends a part of me.
