Lyrics

I was sitting in a caf' in london
A tourist and a cup of tea
I was trying not to be nervous
I said no it don't worry me

She said let's get a train to paris
And the world would stay the same
I don't really want to be embarrassed
But I don't even know your name

But you're talking like there's a you and me!
I'm only waiting, waiting for a cup of tea

I said let's go to wardour
I'll show you a whole lot more
I hope she doesn't think I'm loaded
I hope she doesn't think I'm poor

She said she was born in '77
And her name was roxy lola
I said you pay the bill love
And I'll just think it over

Now you're talking like there's a you and me
I'm only waiting, waiting for some anarchy

I was sitting in a caf' in london
A tourist and a cup of tea
I was trying not to be nervous
I said no it don't worry me

She said let's get a train to paris
And the world would stay the same
I don't really want to be embarrassed
But I don't even know your name

And you're talking like there's a you and me!
I'm only waiting, waiting for a cup of tea

I was speaking to this tourist in london
Yeah roxy lola was her name
I think I went to paris, or maybe it was spain
Got a train back from london
My head was not the same
I remember what I did, but how I can't explain

Cos she's talking, talking like you and me
I was only waiting, waiting for a cup of tea
Yes we're waiting, waiting for some anarchy
Yes we're waiting, waiting for some anarchy
