London Is Burning

London Is Burning

London is burnin'; don't tell the Queen
Somebody's charged the speed garage and then burned down Bethnal Green
Piccadilly's Churming, like a reggae beat
Soon you're gonna be running down

Those burning streets, come on
The century that's hardly on its feet
And the late news breaks early
Does the sun rise from the west or from the east?
(If London is burnin')

An' it takes every day to be surviving in the city

The sirens rising from the East
There's a distant blues dance on a crowded street
The temperature's a-rising, can you feel the heat
Soon you're gonna be running down

Those burning streets, come on
And you're waiting for your flag to be unfurled
And the late news breaks early
So how should life be lived around the world?
(If London is burnin')

An' it takes every day to be surviving in the city
Ready to face that dawn with no pity, come on!
Yeah, ah-come on
(If London is burnin')
(If London is burnin')

Can I get a witness?
Were there's smoke there's heat
There's a love triangle on a two-way street
London is burning and underneath your feet
Soon you're gonna be runnin 'down
Those burning streets, come on

Does the universal clock have a beat?
And The Late News breaks early
Did you ever buy that bar on Lucky street
(If London is burnin')

An' it takes every day to be surviving in the city
Ready to face that dawn with no pity, come on!
Yeah, ah-come on
(London is burnin')
(If London is burnin')

Too many guns in this damn town
At the supermarket, you gotta duck down
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round
(If London is burnin')
Too many guns in this damn town
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round
(If London is burnin')
Too many guns in this damn town
(If London is burnin')
Baby flak jackets on the merry-go-round
(If London is burnin')
