[Chorus]
It was a Amquiet, dark night on an empty street
SomeDmwhere in London City
AmJenny walked alone, she was dragging her feet
She was Dmheading back home to sleep
Well, she Amknew this town, she knew this floor
Because she'd Dmwalked it about a thousand times before
She wanted to esAmcape, can you Dmblame?
[Verse 1]
Well on the Amvery same night, in a different place
There walked a Dmhooded young youth by the name of James
He was Am14 years old and out of his brain
He'd been Dmsmoking ganja with the boys
James, Amhe grew up to be a kid of the street
His Dmmates called him Screech, he was quick on his feet
He was a Amliar, a thief at fourteen years old
The devil Dmhad set his sights on his soul
[Verse 2]
As AmJenny walked home all alone, she felt scared
DmUsually she was alright
But it was like there was something in the air
A diAmvine intervention telling her to bewawre?
Or maybe Dmintuition bugging her and making her so scared?
AmSirens sound in the distance to the beat of Jenny's feet
A Dmsymphony of the night that echoes crime on Lodon's streets
AmJenny turns a corner, their eyes, they meet
Our Dmpoor girl Jenny and a boy named Screech
[Verse 3]
Am"Give me all your money bitch, give it to me
If Dmyou cooperate, then you'll soon be free
I want your Ampurse, your phone
Don't fucking look at me
I Dmmean it bitch, are you listening to me?"
AmJenny freezes, statue like, a lady shaped stalagmite
DmFear like liquid nitrogen in the dark night
AmShe tried to find strength to move
But stayed as Dmstill as a statue in high heeled shoes
[Verse 4]
AmWhat the hell you playing at? You playing games with me?
I Dmswear to fucking God, I'll slice the rosy off your cheeks
You think I Amdon't mean it girl? You don't know me
The Dmlast thing you see will be a boy called
[Bridge]
Screech Amreached for the sheath of the blade with the teeth
That could Dmbite through steel and slice concrete
And he Amswung possessed, with the devil in his chest
And the Dmstatue she was turned to, butter in a breath
[Outro]
It was a Am7quiet, dark night on an empty street
SomeDmwhere in London City
Am7Jenny laid still on the cold concrete
She's Dmfound somewhere to sleep
Well, she Em7knew this town, she knew this floor
Because she'd Fmaj7walked it about a thousand times before
I guess that she Em7escaped, it's such a Fmaj7shame A6#9
