London's Drowning

Mind the gap

There's a wall of water coming up the strand
There's a wave of anger fowing through this land
Behind the barricades there's a violet sound
Pumping out of the underground
The night that london drowned

London's drowning ~ and the waves come in
And the waves come in ~ and the waves come in
Everyone fall down
London's drowning ~ and the waves come in
And the waves come in ~ and the waves come in
Everyone fall down

Well they took all your money ~ took it and spent it all
Called it capital investment ~ building a fucking wall

London's drowning ~ and the waves come in
And the waves come in ~ and the waves come in
Everyone falling down
London's drowning ~ and the waves come in
And the waves come in ~ and the waves come in
Everyone fall down now

And the rats are leaving ~ the fattest rats remain
King Canute in a business suit ~ circling the drain
And the money makers ~ and the movers and shakers
Wait for the very last minute ~ look out

London's drowning ~ everyone falls down
London's drowning ~ everyone falls down
London's drowning ~ watch the wall fall down
London's drowning ~ watch the rain pour down

London's drowning ~ in a sea of sin
London's drowning ~ and the karma kicks in
London's drowning ~ as the walls cave in
London's drowning ~ and so it begins

London's drowning ~ in a sea of sin
London's drowning ~ and so it begins

And the waves come in ~ and the waves come in
And the waves come in

London's drowning
