Here lives a strange creature
Beware the South London Lover Boy
Ah
Girls, stay safe out there
Best to stay prepared
He's a South London lover boy
(Oh, no, uh-uh-uh) beware
(Oh, no, uh-uh-uh) be wary
He's so, so scary

In line back to your doorstep
Spliff hanging off his lips
He'll grab your arse and squeeze it
before you even falls here
He's just so charismatic, and he talks as if he's doing roll
And he says: I'm too toxic for you, darling
But when we get there, you feel like home

Beware
The South London lover boy
He'll know where to find you
Especially hidden when you're home alone too
Beware
He'll pull up on you in an all black car
He'll start feeding you poems out the window
He's not looking for your heart just your pillow
To rest his head

Girls, stay safe out there
Best to stay prepared
He's a South London lover boy
(Oh, no, uh-uh-uh) beware
(Oh, no, uh-uh-uh) he's so aimless
He's so, so dangerous

There's another side to this story
Never mean to be so lucky
And he hunts these streets and they call you by a whistle
Like a bunch of crazy women of course
You don't care not to antagonize it
You're gonna offend his fragile ego
Stay calm and kind, collective
[?] that could be lethal

Beware (beware)
The South London Lover Boy (the South London Lover Boy)
He'll know where to find you (he'll know where to find you)
Especially when you're home alone too
Beware (beware)
He'll pull up on you in an all black car
He'll start reading you poems out the window
He's not looking for your heart just your pillow
To rest his head

Alright, girls (the South, South, South, South)
I need you to repeat after me, okay?
Because it's wild out here, girl
Stay safe, sing, sing
Girls, stay safe out there, sing
Girls, stay safe out there
Best to stay prepared
Best to stay prepared, sing
Girls, stay safe out there, sing
Girls, stay safe out there
It's best to stay prepared
I need some drums
Girls, stay safe out there
Girls, stay safe out there
Best to stay prepared
Best to stay prepared
Girls, stay safe out there
Girls, stay safe out there
Best to stay prepared
Best to stay prepared
He's not looking for your heart just your pillow
To rest his head
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
He's a South London lover boy
