letra de london town - kobo town
[verse 1]
london, you are not quite what i expected
i beg your pardon if i seem dejected
from a colony you once neglected
outside child coming home
america had the muscle but you had the mind
they had the bustle but you had the design
which wound worlds together like rope from twine
i thought as i walked up the serpentine
[chorus]
in you, london town
it was the middle of march and i was walking [?]
london town
didn’t know a soul so i walked all around
london town
feeling like a ship which had run aground in you
london town
[verse 2]
we once wanted to be like you
bowler hats, garbadine suits
now we ape and empire closer to home
mimic men, to the end, you bred it in our bones
we were the margin, you were the metropole
we were the fragment, you were the whole
we were the flesh, you were the mind and soul
at least that is how we heard the story told
[chorus]
by you, london town
it was the middle of march and i was walking [?]
london town
didn’t know a soul so i walked all around
london town
feeling like a ship which had run aground in you
london town
[verse 3]
london, your sun is set
but the night has not quite fallen yet
all the stars once caught in your galaxy
fl!cker like lamps here in your city
in you, london town
walking the streets, history crashing all around
london town
old bells ringing i can hear the sound
to you, london town
[instrumental break]
[verse 4]
london, you are not quite what i expected
i beg your pardon if i seem dejected
from a colony once neglected
outside child coming home
long time, london, since your flag came down
long time since we moved along
but now i see just how entwined
we were left by the years that we left behind
[chorus]
with you, london town
it was the middle of march and i was walking [?]
london town
didn’t know a soul so i walked all around
london town
feeling like a ship which had run aground in you
london town
