London Oh London

Mmm, Mmm, Mmm Mmm, Mmm, Mmm Mmm, Mmm, Mmm Mmm, Mmm, Mmm I couldn't hear nothing above the noise at the bar The girls at the front were hitting it hard Was at the Monarch, trying to impress Some A&R Guy, the place was a mess The Camden crowd, well they didn't mind The sound engineer necked a bottle of wine Up in those lights I thought I'd arrived Me and my sunburst J-45 Mmm, Mmm, Mmm Mmm, Mmm, Mmm The queen in your pocket forgives all your crimes You're making a mint at the worst of times I can see why it was love at first sight You're dark as a river, deep as the night London oh London This place I call home You're peaches and cream You're bad to the bone London oh London This London of mine Got the prettiest face and the dirtiest mind Mmm, Mmm, Mmm Mmm, Mmm, Mmm Booked one last gig to pay for the rent Took the rush-hour tube down to the Ned Old Street, Moorgate, Monument, Bank Had no one to blame and no one to thank The suits came out to hear my tunes While the sun went down on the city of ruins Drowning in money, nothing to drink If you won't listen how can you think London oh London I saw in your eyes You're ripe as a plum But you're rotten inside London oh London This London of mine Got the prettiest face and the dirtiest mind Your lipstick's red on your golden crown Your lovers are lost in the underground Gonna pack up my troubles and leave you behind Me and my sunburst J-45 London oh London I'm dying of thirst I gave you my best and you gave me your worst London oh London This London of mine Got the prettiest face and the dirtiest mind Mmm, Mmm, Mmm Mmm, Mmm, Mmm London oh London This London of mine Got the prettiest face and the dirtiest mind London oh London This London of mine Got the prettiest face and the dirtiest mind
