（Sung by Spiv, Flas & Floosies）
Spiv：I was born a slum gutter infantile
Brute-force educated, delinquent juvenile
I am a product of mass produced factory fodder
Sreets full of tenement blocks, rat infested filth and squalor
I left school, went straight on the dole
And unemployment's no enjoyment
Welfare State owned my mind and my body and my soul
So I worked my way up to be a second-hand car spiv
But don't judge me harshly 'cause I'm just a slum kid
I built up my business with a quick wit and fist
So don't double-cross me or my hoods will dissect you
With their black jacks and shivs
Slum kids never get a break
they've got to fight their way up
Wheel and deal, beg and steal
Sweat blood to earn a buck
I didn't want to work on the factory floor
I wasn't content, I wanted more
Than to be a slave of a lathe
Work all day and go home bored
So a second- hand car spiv was what I became
I built an empire because I used my brains
Chorus：He was a second-hand car spiv up from the slums
So don't judge him harshly because he's just a slum kid
Then we moved into property, stocks and shares
And into high finance
Spiv：And you've got to agree
That running a multi-million corporation
Sure beats selling cars second-hand
Chorus：Once he sold old worn out heaps to the punters on the street
Spiv：Now I'm in control of the country as a whole
And the world is at my feet
Chorus：The world is at his feet
Spiv：Power, power, I've got power oozing out of me
And when you think of all the things I've done It says a lot for one
Who worked his way up from the streets
Yes I'm a second-hand car spiv
Do a deal, buy and sell
It's my trade, I know it well
Make a sale, ring the bell
And let the suckers go to hell
Bank the profits, count the change
Another sucker comes your way
Life is a crooked game,
And slum kids never change
