Scotland Yard

When the hungry days are gone

Then came the hungry nights

Holding on to what you've got

Standing in the spotlight

They'll show you mostly

What they want you to see

Walking the city at midnight

And whistling in the dark

Many times you've been down here

And seen the mess they make

Putting on your party face

Occasionally it's fake

Sometime in the future

Whan you wre carefully

Trying to do the right thing

And showing some discipline

Living knowing you've done nothing wrong

Living as if you've done nothing wrong

You knew it could happen

You knew that it would

Who's been causing problems

In the neighbourhood

Who's been breaking windows

Generally misunderstood

Living, living in Scotland Yard

Living, living in Scotland Yard

You knew it could happen

You knew that it would

Living in, living in Scotland Yard

Living in, living in Scotland Yard

Living in - did the right thing

Living in Scotland Yard - in the end

Living in, living in Scotland Yard
