Soho Cinders the Musical - Spin Lyrics
The song is written by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe.
JAMES
How can you go wrong with honest?
How can you go wrong with simple truth
Plain talking – that's what people want
Since when did decency become old-fashioned
Hidden by a smoke screen of cliche?
I promised that I’d play it straight
Buzz words will just have to wait
I intend to win the race in my own way
WILLIAM (spoken)
They all think they can do it on their own
JAMES
How can you go wrong with honest?
How can you give way to lies and sleaze?
I ask you – what is there to gain?
And who made arrogance a job requirement
For the public servants we elect?
Who think that once in city hall
Somehow, thеy're above it all
I think Londoners dеserve far more respect
WILLIAM
At the end of the day
It's all about a cross in a box
You may be the oarsman
But remember I’m the cox
I'll steer you to victory
But you must keep things in check
Down stream
That dream
Chain round your neck
COMPANY
Spin
Spin out of control
Sign the paperwork and sell your soul
Spin
Doctor every word you say
Spin until you win the day
JAMES
How can you go wrong with honest?
How can you condone turning blind eyes?
I promise mine will look ahead
And when was avarice decreed an art form?
I'll ensure corruption is stamped out
But issues like these have to wait
Voters must first chose my fate
But as mayor of London will I have the clout?
WILLIAM
At the end of the day
It's all about a cross in a box
Create opportunity,
Don't wait until it knocks
We're building your profile
Enhance it in the press
Great quotes
Earn votes, instant success
WILLIAM AND COMPANY
Spin
Spin at every turn
Common decency can crash and burn
Spin
Keep that image clean and slick
Make sure that the dirt can't stick
Spin

WILLIAM AND COMPANY
Sell your soul, it's gonna pay
Spin a web for in a web
the spider will ensnare his prey
WILLIAM
Spin until you win the day
COMPANY
