When she's hot it's the heat of a burning at the stake 

And when she's cold it's the chill of a frozen Moscow lake 

And when she smiles is it real or the smile an assassin makes 

Before he sends you to hell ? 

She's an east end girl 



When she sighs it's the sigh of a sleeping tiger's stir 

And when she cries it's a storm like the world has never heard 

And when she lies you'll believe in every single word 

Coz you can never tell 

With an east end girl 



[Bridge]

And when they're kicking down the door she'll be there at your side 

They'll never take her alive coz she's an east end girl 



She's dangerous and beautiful and proud 

With her feet on the ground and her head high in the clouds 

And all it takes is one look through a late night party crowd 

To put you under the spell 

Of an east end girl 



[Bridge]



And she may move to the country or the coast 

For the kids and the Volvo and the Sunday roast 

But there's one thing her posh neighbours can never boast 

Underneath her shell 

She's an east end girl.
