[Verse]
Am Em
I come from south London I think I'm cool.
G F#m D
I wear a cheap crombie and that's about all
Am Em
I go down the pub with all the lads
G D
Their wearing their chains that they got from their dads
Am Em
But all I got was a rotten cheap chain
G D
My wife's got in debt with the club book again
[Chorus]
Am Em
I'm a plastic gangster
G D
They call me a crown and anchor
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
Am Em
I asked one of my mates to get me some books
G D
About the East End their gangs and their crooks
Am Em
I bought a cheap car from one of the lads
G D
He got it cheap from his car dealing dad
Am Em
I'm in my new car, I'm driving it home
G D
The next thing I know the engine has blown
[Chorus]
Am Em
I'm a plastic gangster
G D
They call me a crown and anchor
[Verse]
Am Em
I went down the West End, the local was drag
G D
I had to pay a tenner to go with some bag
Am Em
I took her home to her place I gave her some stick
G D
The next thing I know the old bag was sick
Am Em
I stay at home on Thursdays, Minders on TV
G D
I'm learning Cockney rhyming slang of to a tee
Am Em
So when I go out on Fridays I know what to say
G D
I wish I was like Arthur and get my own way
