You wanker, Charlie!

I waited for you for three hours last night.

Where was you?

F***ing South London gangster? Look at you.

Cardboard cut-out c*nt.

You f***ing look like a Paki.

What's the matter with you?

Drive on.

# You, you, you, you

# You got me hangin' on a string now

# Am I your plaything?

# You never told me you were waiting...

Lay so much as a f***ing finger on her

and you're dead.

- I weren't looking at her, I swear.

- It's OK, I'm only playing.

That's Carly, my partner's girl.

He's in Gibraltar on a bit of business, but a word

of warning - he's protective and she's...

You know, just leave it at that, eh?

Anyway,

what are we gonna do with you, kid?

I tell you what, there's a party at my bar tonight.

- Do you wanna drive me?

- All right, yeah.

I'll give you a few pesetas. Go and get yourself

some evening wear. Then pick me up.

Hey, Charlie.

Who are you?

Carly, meet the Kid Frankie.

He's driving us about tonight.

Ghetto Life

# When I was a young boy

# Growing up in the ghetto

Are you f***ing sure?

You look like

you're about to walk onto Centre Court.

I think you look edible.

Heart Of Glass

How you doing?

Lovely to see you again.

All right, mate, how's it going?

- Come over here. Give us a kiss.

- Charlie!

Get them drinks.

Stick it on my tab.

Hello, gorgeous.

I'll speak to you later, sweetheart.

Do you want a drink? You go and have a dance

and I'll bring it over to you.

- I'll have a Babycham.

- All right.

What do you reckon, eh, kid?

Aye aye! Look at him, look.

Get up there!

Look, over here, kid. Here they are.

Charlie! All right there?

Here we go. Aye aye!

How are you doing, son? Ha, ha! There you go.

Are you all right, Ron?

Ronnie, I'll have the same.

Champagne and a beer.

# Mucho mistrust love's gone behind...

Danny, meet the Kid Frankie.

Frankie, meet Danny.

Frankie, Ronnie. Ronnie, Frankie.

You met him earlier. They're with us.

- How are you going, son?

- I'm good, thanks, Ron.

- I'm Ron.

- Listen, Danny's Ronnie's pal.

Ronnie is Sammy's pal

who's my partner who's down in Gibraltar

on a bit of business.

Got it?

- Where are you out of, kid?

- The blue.

Good boy!

My Shirley loves you.

The story goes, Danny and Ronnie

were on the run for a robbery that went wrong.

But their wives, Shirley and Nora,

were more aggressive than the Flying Squad

and hunted them down on the coast.

Taxi!

Here we go, look at that!

Champagne for everyone.

Frankie, you got this, son?

Who's that?

That's the mayor.

All right? Do you want a drink?

He's the main man.

Send him over some champagne, will you?

Good boy.

Ha, ha!

# Once I had love and it was a gas
