I bought my friend a Mustang in 1993 My granddad died and I bought that guitar with the money that he left for me The artwork on my bedroom walls was all made by my friends Each piece of it was priceless and I'll never see it again I had a shoebox full of love letters I kept it in a way From girls I haven't seen for years to remind me of my younger days And all my books and poetry and silly little songs Well they all went up in flames that day now everything is gone All the things we lost in the fire All the things we learned on the way Is this the end of an era or just a pub in Holloway It started in the basement on the 18th of December And now all that's left are memories we can't remember Oh my girlfriend loved her wardrobe man, she had so many clothes And now all her sexy dresses have been damaged by the smoke Well Andy lost his passport and university degree Danny lost his laptop and Rainbow lost her tree Ally lost his bedroom and Jamie lost his job Mike Russell didn't own much but he's still pretty pissed off North London lost a boozer a venue and a stage And everyone will really miss that pub in Holloway SongtexteAll the things we lost in the fire All the things we learned on the way Is this the end of an era or just a pub in Holloway It started in the basement on the 18th of December And now all that's left are memories we can't remember The band lost their equipment and they went their separate ways It's pretty save to say that things will never be the same But it came with a brand new year a time for change and that I'd like to thank Alan Pownall for lending me his flat.
