22 Acacia Avenue (The Continuing Saga of Charlotte the Harlot)
Iron Maiden

If you're feeling down depressed and lonely

I know a place where we can go

22 Acacia Avenue

Meet a lady that I know


So if you're looking for a good time

And you're prepared to pay the price

Fifteen quid is all she asks for

Everybody's got their vice


If you're waiting for a long time

For the rest to do their piece

You can tell her that you know me

And you might even get it free


So any time you're down the East End

Don't you hesitate to go

You can take my honest word for it

She'll teach you more than you can know


Charlotte, can't you get out from all this madness?

Can't you see it only brings you sadness?

When you entertain your men

Don't know the risk of getting disease


Some day when you're reaching the age of forty

I bet you'll regret the days when you were laying

Nobody then will want to know

You won't have any beautiful wares to show any more


22, The Avenue

That's the place where we all go

You will find it's warm inside

The red light's burning bright tonight


Charlotte, isn't it time you stopped this mad life?


Don't you ever think about the bad times?

Why do you have to live this way?

Do you enjoy your lay or is it the pay?


Sometimes when your strolling down the Avenue

The way you walk it make men think of having you

When you're walking down the street

Everybody stops and turns to stare at you


22, The Avenue

That's the place where we all go

You will find it's warm inside

The red light's burning bright tonight


Beat her, mistreat her, do anything that you please

Bite her, excite her, make her get down on her knees

Abuse her, misuse her, she can take all that you've got

Caress her, molest her, she always does what you want


You're running away

Don't you know what you're doing?

Can't you see it'll lead you to ruin?

Charlotte, you've taken your life and you've thrown it away


You believe that because what you're earning

Your life's good

Don't you know that you're hurting?

All the people that love you don't cast them aside


All the men that are constantly drooling

It's no life for you stop all that screwing

You're packing your bags

And you're coming with me
