No it doesnt rhyme with treatury
Nothing i never did
Measure out your honesty and
Things you keep in

The truth is known the drums they roll
I loop the loop on the old banjo

Some people run from trouble
Some people meet it half way
Others are glad to pay
Their cab fare over
And ?
Enjoy the company ?

The truth be known the drums they roll
I loop the loop on the old banjo
Say no no no
Then said yeah yeah yeah
Oh maby maybe maybe
I just dont care
Say no no no
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh maby maybe maybe
I just dont care

All I know is Wolfman helped Pete write this song...I have barely any idea what its about, bit a social commentary in there.

Correction: "There's magic in all that he does" This song doesn't mean much to me. But it's still a brilliant song.

Just makes me happy...yeah, I've heard they lived in Delaney something or other, but I think it was Albion Terraces or something like that that wasn't as grand as it's name. Still...great song.

the Song's brilliant, it's about becoming a libertine 1st verse (& theme) is freedom through music 2nd is self knowledge (and of others) 3rd Escape from bad company/repression with a cheeky reference to doing a runner from a cab x x x BReakin the Law!

you've got to love this song. in my opinion it's one of their best songs, and the fact that it was merely a b-side shows how much creative talent the libertines had in them

i think some of its to do with Steve Bedlow a.k.a Scarborough Steve who was in the original Libertines years ago cos Pete and Carl met him on a bus. and i think i read somewhere about pete carl and steve living in 'Delaney Mansions' which wasnt as grand as the name. i could be wrong....
