Lyrics
Purple Gazelles - Lyrics Verse 1 Kids are playing outside, they're all there building a wall They're to young to realise that this could be the greatest day of them all In the blistering may sunshine for once in a lifetime where dreams come true Life is great 14th may '88 when your colours are yellow and blue And we stagger to bed, drunk on success Chorus Wearing purple gazelles, they never let me down Back in '88, they followed me around Verse 2 Walking down the Broadway it's a see of yellow and blue All of SW19 in a delirious daydream, we were there, where were you? And the open top bus, with Corky waving at us, stood beside John Fashanu Crowds singing and cheering with no sign of clearing, we where there, the whole night through And we stagger to bed, drunk on success
