London Town lyrics

Slaves in seas of soot we drown

Come on down to London town

The cogs they creak and the pistons pound

Come on down to London town

Power cloaked in progress

Smoke in Eden’s eyes

A million choking chimneys burn and

Blacken out the sky

Grab your mates and join us

Where the rats rejoice

The brazen brass of the working class

Are here to find their voice

Revolution holds us bound

Come on down to London town

Break your back for class and crown

Come on down to London town

Steam train running on a reckless rail

Speeding right into the rising gale

Shovel harder cos we’re on your tail

London’s bloody cry

Crippled to deliver

The spoils of industry

Crimson are the rivers

Bleed our grief into the sea

Slaves in seas of soot we drown

Come on down to London town

The cogs they creak and the pistons pound

Come on down to London town

Steam train running on a reckless rail

Speeding right into the rising gale

Shovel harder cos we’re on your tail

London’s bloody cry

Cry revolution, broken dreams

Cruel revolution smoke and steam
