about

A Bronsons original with roots in the 1990s, performed live for the first time in 2014 at The Dublin Castle, London.

lyrics

Well I was just 19
Did a raid in Deptford
Got a guard in the face
Drove away in an Escort
Drove away in an Escort
To get away from the law
Wide eyed in the mirror
There's blood on the floor

Felt excited I could not sleep
I was out too early and in too deep

Early next the evening
About a quarter to five
I stroll down to the boozer
Felt good to be alive
Felt good to be alive
That's me in the Sun
But when I look in the Mirror
I left my prints on the gun

I felt excited...

Early next morning
The cops come around
They come through the window
They kick the door down
Kick the door down
They frightened my mother
She was in bed
And they were undercover

I felt excited...

Local man makes good
Local man makes money - lot’s of money
Local man get shot down in flames
Local man in a hurry
He’s a local man… got a local plan…
