When It All Kicked Off
On cobbled streets the brawl began
Down Brick Lane in London Town
The back drop of the curry shops
Set the stage for fisty cuffs
The night began as most would plan
A bunch of lads some with wags
Enjoying beers and laddish chants
Heading to a place where we could dance
This normal night fell down hill
When a mate of mine became quite ill
Normally of normal mind
The drunk fool thought he'd be unkind
And rack his heavily buttoned coat over
The bonnet of a passing Sport Range Rover
The 4 by 4 slammed on the breaks
And my friend realised his mistake
Inside this car were 5 hard bastards
And unfortunately none of them were plastered
And if for the driver the plot was not yet lost
When my other mate held his door shut,
It definitely was
At this point all chaos consumed
This tiny street for spicy food.
