London's Brilliant |
| I didn’t want to be some satellite clown |
| So I went up to London cause I heard it’s falling down |
| Found the Dennis the Menace of Little Venice |
| Still digging up the bones of Strummer and Jones |
| Revolutionary days were sadly over |
| And a cool profile down Ladbroke Grove |
| Won’t make it no more |
| You could wake up in a doorway |
| London’s brilliant when it’s raining |
| Everybody’s moaning and complaining |
| London’s dismal and divine |
| And I know one day, one day |
| (One day, one day) |
| It’s going to be |
| Mine eyes have seen the gory faces of those bitter men |
| And their bawdy talk |
| And that’s not all |
| Every night before I closed my eyes |
| I’d say a prayer to my desires |
| Hung up on a poster on a wall |
| Don’t let me grow up to fail and fall |
| If I must grow up at all |
| Well the night’s got chilly and he swore he’d love me silly |
| But he couldn’t raise a spark in the dark in Hyde Park |
| With a bite and a bark, he tried to make his mark |
| Now he’s getting fucked silly somewhere in Piccadilly |
| He said I could be a little Madam in Mayfair |
| But I’d rather wake up in a doorway somewhere |
| Cause in the long run |
| I’ll probably be someone |
| London’s brilliant when it’s raining |
| Everybody’s moaning and complaining |
| London’s dismal and divine |
| And I know one day, one day |
| (One day, one day) |
| It’s going to be mine |
| (One day, one day) |
| It’s going to be mine |
| (One day, one day, one day) |
| London’s brilliant! |
