Sights And Sounds Of London Town

Oh Gillian she's a Doncaster lass

Trains it down on the quarter past

Friday night leaves the kids at home

And struts her stuff on the Euston Road

Saying "Do you want some company darling?

Do you want some company now?

My place, your place or no place

I could use the extra cash anyhow"

That's the sights and sounds of London Town

The sights and sounds of London Town

The sights and sounds of London Town

Oh Jean-Paul he came over from Toulouse

They told him that London was the golden goose

He never got his hands on enough to eat

He never did get his arse up off the street

Wanted to be a rap DJ

They took his pulse then they turned him away

Under the radar of your fellow man

With all that charisma it ain't worth a damn

Saying "Lend me your shoes till Monday

Oh brother can you lend me a comb

I can wash dishes all night long

I just need my fare back home"

That's the sights and sounds of London Town

The sights and sounds of London Town

The sights and sounds of London Town

Well Jackie she tried just about everything

She tried to dance, she tried to sing

Too many doors slammed in your face

It leaves a nasty aftertaste

You scramble around for a little bit of cash

Ease the pain with Mister Flash

Saint Annes Court is the rendezvous

For those who share your point of view

Saying "This is the last time you will see me

Never again no way

One more time I'll never ask you again

I've just got to get through today"

That's the sights and sounds of London Town

The sights and sounds of London Town

The sights and sounds of London Town

Oh Mickey he sleeps every two or three days

Runs through Soho like a rat through a maze

A little blackmail here a sting on the side

Enough to get started on the next enterprise

Dresses expensive but that's just a crutch

Like his word or his handshake it doesn't mean much

Depends on his kickback from the middle man

And whatever he can beat out of Sally Ann

Saying "Lucky I'm the one you ran into

Oh lucky I've taken a shine

Lucky I'm needing a partner

50/50 right down the line"

Oh that's the sights and sounds of London Town

The sights and sounds of London Town
