Green Street Green Lyrics
If you've got a pack of trouble
weighing on your worried mind
If you tend to see things double
and you can't unwind
Take a trip to Green Street Green
Get yourself a little scene
Everything is kind of groovy
down at Green Street Green
Situated north of Nancy
Just a little east of west
People there do as they fancy
Dressed in fancy dress
Take a trip to Green Street Green
Get yourself a little scene
Everything is kind of groovy
down at Green Street Green
There's a man with a band
Under the trees
Giving out the sweetest sound
While the birds and the bees everywhere
A-buzz-a-buzz-a-buzzin' around
So onomatopoeic evening
Hustle up a one way fare
Organize your time of leaving
A bus'll take you there
Take a trip to Green Street Green
Get yourself a little scene
Everything is kind of groovy
down at Green Street Green
weighing on your worried mind
If you tend to see things double
and you can't unwind
Get yourself a little scene
Everything is kind of groovy
down at Green Street Green
Just a little east of west
People there do as they fancy
Dressed in fancy dress
Get yourself a little scene
Everything is kind of groovy
down at Green Street Green
Under the trees
Giving out the sweetest sound
While the birds and the bees everywhere
A-buzz-a-buzz-a-buzzin' around
Hustle up a one way fare
Organize your time of leaving
A bus'll take you there
Get yourself a little scene
Everything is kind of groovy
down at Green Street Green

Green Street Green is a district on the edge of Orpington in the outer London suburbs, and I lived near there when the song came out. Nothing in the song in any way relates to the place* and I remember the band saying at the time that they had never been there.
*except for it being kind of groovy of course
