Mind How You Glance

Chorus

Down at the Old Crown he sits in the gloom

Sly little grin, guest in the room

Everyone knows but no one will say

Mind how you glance or he'll look your way

Post-Chorus

Oi oi

All night

Oi oi

Hold tight

Verse 2

Deals in the alley, whispers and winks

Pints overflow while your good sense sinks

Pocketful of coins, stories for trade

Old leather jacket, secrets well paid

Pre-Chorus

Barman just nods, turns up the sound

Heads all go down when he comes around

Cigarette flick, toss of the glass

Time to forget, better let him pass

Chorus

Down at the Old Crown he sits in the gloom

Sly little grin, guest in the room

Everyone knows but no one will say

Mind how you glance or he'll look your way

Post-Chorus

Oi oi

All night

Oi oi

Hold tight

Bridge

Empty old phone box, everyone’s gone

He’s counting his winnings, humming a song

Side-eye from regulars glued to the seat

No one remembers the shoes on his feet

Chorus

Down at the Old Crown he sits in the gloom

Sly little grin, guest in the room

Everyone knows but no one will say

Mind how you glance or he'll look your way

Post-Chorus

Oi oi

All night

Oi oi

Hold tight
