Well it's a long, long way, oooh
From Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea
La la la la

I was a child of the pound and the crown
I lost myself in the haze
Of the new life that I found
On the silver screen

She was a child of the movies and the dollar
One fine day I was led astray
She took me by the collar
Said you must follow me

Well it's a long, long way, oooh
From Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea

It's a long, long way, oooh
From Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea
Bollywood to Battersea

Yeah I was a child of the suicide and the leisure
Oh one fine day I was led astray
To a burning collar
Said what's your pleasure

I was born in the four minute warning
My old man said as he shook his head
"Ohhh, fuck this...
I'm off down the boozer"
