lyrics

The stockings got you hooked in our hotel room
How we stripped away the layers
Sated for now, we'll be hungry soon
We'll be mouthing ungodly prayers

Down in the lobby there are giant floating men
Spies in trenchcoats and fedoras, guns in their pockets
We hit Oxford Street, heaving, the whole world on a spend
Gotta get to the 100 Club fast as a rocket

Love at the 100 Club
It's dirty and it's sweet
You made me feel I'm a woman again
In the heart of Oxford Street
The Christmas lights are huge
Pinned on a dusky sky
And like a fool I'm falling in love
After so long just getting by

We jump into a rickshaw as if we're in Delhi
Baby this beats another night in watching telly
The buses and the taxis they're all stuck in a jam
But we get there just in time with our rickshaw man

Love at the 100 Club
It's dirty and it's sweet
You made me feel I'm a woman again
In the heart of Oxford Street
We dive into that dirty basement
Commune with BB's ghost
Shoot the Bighead, The Silver Brazilians
Drink beer, kiss and laugh and feel real close

2am and a centaur takes us back to Marble Arch
Amazing with those hooves he rides his rickshaw so damn fast
A quiet man in the lobby mops up after our feet
Oh I guess he came the long way from Africa looking for gold on the street

Love at the 100 Club
It's dirty and it's sweet
You made me feel I'm a woman again
In the heart of Oxford Street
The jigsaw fits, the stars are aligned
You're as tender as I need
Even if this night will end
I'll keep it close with me
