gutter queen

i see her on her balcony,
ain't seen her for a while,
she's having her fag break
during the ad break (")
of jeremy kyle.
she's my gutter juliet
but i ain't no romeo,
she's brushing her hair
while i mount the stairs
with sexual vertigo.

she's my baby,
don't matter she ain't the same as me,
she ain't no lady
but that's ok with me -
she loves me -
that's all i need.

her name's tracy
while i read shakespeare
but we always get along,
we don't dress the same,
we don't act the same
but she gets where i'm coming from.

she lives in a tower block,
i live in a converted barn,
she reads the sun,
i read kierkegaard
but she loves me
and i love her
and that's all you need,
i'm her prince,
she's my ghetto queen.
