 SCUMMY
 I said whose that girl there?
 I wonder  what went wrong so that she had  to roam the streets
dunt  do major credit cards, I doubt  she does receipts
 
 its  all not quite legitimate.
 SAME CHORD PATTERN FOR THE NEXT BIT
 And what a scummy man
 Just give him half a chance I bet he'll rob you if he can
 Can see it in his eyes, yeah That he's got a driving ban
 Amongst some other offences

 And I've seen him with girls  of the night
 And he  told Roxanne to put on  her red light
 They're all infected but he'll  be alright
 Cause he's a scumbag, don't  you know
 I said he's a scumbag, don't you know.
