Generate meaning
1
I reside in Prince Of Wales Drive
2
In a mansion block named "Primrose"
3
With constant hot water it's got all it oughta
4
Behind Victorian windows
5
But nonetheless, I must confess
6
I'm looking for something grander "”
7
If you could see it, you'd agree
8
It's better to be an Overstrander
9
If one rich hag should like my gags
10
And drunkenly drag me to bed in Overstrand"”
11
"Stand still while I take your picture!"
12
I would give her the negatives
13
If she could deliver the keys of Overstrand
14
(And then I would evict her)
15
Oh! To be one of the bourgeoisie
16
Living in luxury south of the river
17
I'll flirt and philander
18
I'll take huge back-handers
19
I just want to be an Overstrander
20
If that won't work, I'll lift my shirt
21
For a certain dirty old man in Overstrand
22
And I'll see that he is happy!
23
When he's dead, his will"”
24
Instead of bequeathing it to his in-breds as planned"”
25
Will hand Overstrand to me!
26
And see that I am happy!
27
I'll ponce, I'll pander, I'll gerrymander "”
28
I just want to be an Overstrander!
29
Beware, Miss Clark!
30
A walk in the park
31
In winter the darkness can fall so fast
32
You may lose your way, and slip into the river
33
No-one will guess that beneath this false chest
34
There's a gentleman dressed up as you"”
35
I'll fool them all!
36
The men will call, and I'll make them quiver!
37
I'll lie, I'll slander, I'll write for The Evening Standard
38
I just want to be an Overstrander!
39
...please?
