I've been to London, I know what it's like 
Just keep your head down and you, you live your life 
The worlds a circle with a cross inside 
We're one big target
Wake up
It's time to die

Got a tiny flat for the price of a castle 
Damp on the walls. Just a sink in the bathroom 
The roads less travelled
Full of danger and mystery 
Well, the roads most travelled are  
Quite often touristy 
Food so good that it's almost sickening 
Check out the Museum of Natural History 
Go and see a show at the fashionable West End
You pick the right one  
You might see a legend 
Go and have some laughter at the comedy store 
Have a drink in Soho if you want to be bored 
Travel on the tube if you're going far 
Save a bit of money with an Oyster card! 

I've been to London, I know what it's like 
Just keep your head down and you, you live your life 
The worlds a circle with a cross inside 
We're one big target
Wake up
It's time to die

Yo! Yo! 
It's outbred disease, grown immune to fire 
They stamp down the dead while the buildings get higher 
You call me a taxi
I'll call you a liar 
If you think your journey's worth a single penny to the buyer 
A scar of tiny tumours, a recursive perpendicular 
The cattle runs to bolt guns on the North Circular 
A life spent in orbit. A treadmill, sugar-coated
And every place you think you have to be is unimportant
Mass unemployment and class disappointment equals 
Metaphysical education rollin' station to station as you run out of patience in the mud
Trash, rot and heavy water, cause the Thames is full of blood and the mayor's a fuckin' rotter

I've been to London, I know what it's like 
Just keep your head down and you, you live your life 
The worlds a circle with a cross inside 
We're one big target
Wake up
It's time to die

Neo-pagans are cut-rate Fagin's holdin' stay-ins in the shape of pretty vacants 
Who display no affectations of abatin', hatin' the waste taste the position their parents paid
Prayed, faked and raped to obtain them
While a network of agents choke down libations
Reptilian inclinations awaiting their transformation
'Cause outside the water's raising to wash away foundations to leave you drowning and waving
We're just bait for the next stage in the manifestation of the hex, sex and death of the pyramid x-ray
The Centre Point death ray
Comets smear the blackened sky and where are heroes
Not here, no no just Nero fat Ground Zero fiddling as the shuttle hits 
One last gasp, as you surpass the last of the rat pack and the hooks in your back slowly take up the slack
You return to the ocean, swim free at all corners of the map, tow it out to sea and scuttle it

I've lived in London, I know what it's like
You keep your head down and avoid the signs 
The worlds a circle with a cross inside 
One target market. Pay up! It's time to buy 

Picked up and cut up in an unlicensed taxi 
Can't afford the rent so you're selling your jacksy 
See where the Queen lives and spends your taxes 
Try an East End pub, see how a gangster relaxes 
Mugged by a man who calls himself Guvnor 
Is he a wanker? No, he's a Londoner 

The kings by the river gonna loot your future
The kings by the river gonna loot your future
The kings by the river gonna loot your future
The kings by the river gonna loot your future
