This is the dawning of a new era This is the dawning of a new era I met a girl from area three She told me that she worked in a chicken factory This is the dawning of a new era By two o'clock we were 'Brahms & Lisst' I had to walk her home through area six This is the dawning of a new era Sticks and stones may break my bones In area six they throw bottles and bricks and kicks This is the dawning of a new era I climbed the stairs to the fourteenth floor The key won't fit the door This is the dawning of a new era She said she had a beautiful flat We had to sleep on the mat This is the dawning of a new era Woke up and thought "This ain't exactly heaven" Oh shit, this is area seven This is the dawning of a new era This is the dawning of a new era This is the dawning of a new era This is so boring, it's a new era
