| Life in London is bittersweet
|
| Spray can slogans along the street
|
| Some kind of revolution in the town
|
| Razor blades and safety pins make you look like a clown
|
| What’s goin' down
|
| Is just the same old sound
|
| You know that energy
|
| Has always been my drug for me
|
| You know, I came across a lot of water
|
| Just to see, if it could be
|
| The place to go, the life for me
|
| I changed my dollars into pounds
|
| And now that drink is gonna cost me fifty p
|
| But the District Line just doesn’t seem
|
| To be going as far as I’d like to go today
|
| And I’ve met a lot of great people
|
| I guess that’s one thing that will never change
|
| People are people wherever you go
|
| Now you wanna know why, it’s cuz I’m telling you so
|
| But I’d like to see, some peace and harmony
|
| Well, everybody thinks differently
|
| But that shouldn’t mean a thing
|
| Shouldn’t mean a thing
|
| Pack up my suitcase, I gotta go
|
| Back to a land that I think I know
|
| Bring something with me
|
| Leave something behind
|
| Oh, Life in London’s at the back of my mind
|
| But the District Line just doesn’t seem
|
| To be running as far as I’d
|
| Like to go today… |
