date: 95/10/15
I didn t want to be some satellite clown
So I went up to London cuase I heard it s falling down
Found the Denis the Menace of Little Venice
Still digging up the bones of Strummer and Jones
Revolutionary day 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
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 close my eyes
I d say a prayer to my desires
Hung up on the poster on the 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 ed silly somewhere in Picadilly
He said I could be a little Madam in Mayfair
But I d rather wakle up in a doorway somewhere
`Cos in the long run
I ll propably 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
It s going to be...
London s brilliant
