Life in London is bittersweet Slay slogans along the street Some kind of revolution in the town Razor blades and safety pins, you look like a clown What's goin' down It's just the same old sound You know that energy Has always been the drug for me 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, as I'd like to go today Oh I've met a lot of great people Well I guess that's one thing that will never change People are people wherever you go Now you wanna know why, it's 'cause I'm telling you so But I'd like to see, some peace and harmony Well then they thinks differently But that shouldn't mean a thing No, no, no-no 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 As I'd like to go today Oh
