Fame And Fortune |
Seeking fame and fortune |
We walk the streets of London |
Looking for the crossroads everywhere |
Holed up in squats in theatre bars |
There’s a slasher on the Holloway boulevard |
Screaming: «Monkey, monkey, mon-key everywhere» |
Like tin soldiers responding to the call |
To Camden we will crawl |
One and all |
Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord |
By icons we were lured |
One and all |
Seeking fame and fortune |
Old Nick says: «come on then, I’ll meet you in the shadows by Rochester square» |
The deal was done, the trade was rough |
Doubloons down for a double bluff |
Dip your quill in your bleeding heart |
Sign there and there and there |
Like tin soldiers responding to the call |
To Camden we will crawl |
One and all |
Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord |
By icons we were lured |
One and all |
Oh, they were as boys, tell me what then did they know |
What was it they learned and where did they go |
Now listen to the voice of the city morning air |
If you’re looking for something that’s never been there |
If you’re seeking fame and fortune |
Walking the streets of London |
Looking for the crossroads everywhere |
Hold on to your dreams, however bleak it seems |
The world they may not listen, but the devil may care |
Like tin soldiers responding to the call |
To Camden we will crawl |
One and all |
Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord |
By icons we were lured |
One and all |
