The Jam

I'm bumping this thread to post these lyrics.
In my opinion this song is Weller at his best.
Written in the late 70s this is easily the most accurate depiction of the lairier side of English society...I tell thee!
And still applies today...the real deal!
Anyone who has never heard 'Down In The Tube Station At Midnight'...download now!

The distant echo -
Of faraway voices boarding faraway trains
To take them home to
The ones that they love and who love them forever
The glazed, dirty steps - repeat my own and reflect my thoughts
Cold and uninviting, partially naked
Except for toffee wrapers and this morning
 
Two more reasons. Both of them from This Is the Modern World, which is definitely one of their best though more underrated albums.
