London.
Jostling for position makes me think that we're not listening
everybody's dancing but I don't think they can hear at all
living isn't meaningless just because it has no mean
and just 'cos where you're living isn't London doesn't make you a fool.
Everybody says we can have everything
we can all do what we like
we can live and love and dance and sing
and where we are living doesn't mean a thing
so London, it can keep them 'cos you are mine.
Not gonna drive a fast car, pay for use of the streets
just so I can say I've got the world at the soles of my feet
don't think that the rest of us are dreaming of you
'cos I'm not losing sleep thinking about pastures new.
Everybody says we can have everything
we can all do what we like
we can live and love and dance and sing
and where we are living doesn't mean a thing
so London, it can keep them 'cos you are mine.
Everybody says we can have everything
we can all go where we please
I don't need no cityscape so I can be happy
those bright lights mean nothing to me
