Sham 69, formed in Hersham in 1975, were the voice of the people in the first wave of British punk… (- bebo.com/Unofficial-Sham-69)

        

All foreign feet down Oxford Street
Faces from places I’ve never been
All the shops and restaurants
Ask for money that I haven’t got

It’s just a fake make no mistake
A rip off for you but a Rolls for them

Don’t wanna buy or eat no more
From King’s Road shoppers make us poor
And time is running out for us

It’s just a fake make no mistake
A rip off for you but a Rolls for them
