I remember Croydon - on the way heading out of town;

What did it ever do to make morons want to burn it down?

I remember Croydon - suburban in each drawn breath;

What did it ever do to become a stage for death?

I remember Croydon - a place to be passing through;

What did it ever do to change from the place I knew?

I remember Croydon - far removed from airs and graces;

What did it ever do to deserve these hate-filled faces?
