Midnight Beast - Camden Crawling lyrics

rate me

Last night I was walking down the road

I was struggling trying to find a happy place to go

When all of a sudden pops up a man

With a chicken samosa and beverage in hand

Funny old man with a gummy smile

With piss stained pants, he had no style

It was clear to me he had something to say

So we both stepped back and said take it away

Come one and all to a festival

I wanna teach you all about the Camden crawl

Right, so you’ve just gotta do a standard crawl

That’s all you do, literally on your hands and on your knees

Wow

Are you ready to crawl?

Not at all

Why not?

Because it’s a stupid idea!

I haven’t done that for ten years or something

Doesn’t matter, it’s like riding a bike

What and they build a whole festival around this?

Well yeah, it’s called the Camden crawl

This is the chorus, this’ll make you understand why you gotta crawl

I’m not getting on my hands and knees

You’ve got to

I’m not gonna do it

Crawl, through Camden

Through Camden, crawl

It’s the place to be, with celebrities

Amy, Doherty on your hands and knees

Crawl, through Camden

Through Camden, crawl

It’s the place for fans to see their favourite bands

Sugababes, Lostprophets on your knees and hands

So we’re at a gig still on all fours

But we can’t see shit kneeling on the floor

Our legs are sore and hands are in pain

What you guys doing, you look really gay

My hands are so dirty, they smell of like urine and poo

Come on guys, why’d you stop crawling?

My knees are bleeding, is it alright if I do the other kind of crawl?

Well that’s the… no… you can’t. You can’t do that.

This is the worst idea possible.

What you standing up for?

Well I was gonna enjoy, you know, the likes of the very special Sugababes

I love Sugababes!

…Plan B…

I love Sugababes! Don’t I say that every day?

I go “I love Sugababes!”

Right, then get crawling mate

Crawl through Camden

Through Camden, crawl

It’s the place for I to get high on life

Hold hands, watch bands, we can touch the sky

Crawl through Camden

Through Camden, crawl

It’s the place to be with celebrities

Professor Green, Plan B, come and crawl with me

Crawl through Camden

Through Camden, crawl

Come one and all to a festival

I wanna teach you all about the Camden crawl
