joe strummer & the mescaleros - london is burning - single version lyrics

Loading...

london is burnin’, don’t tell the queen
somebody tried to speak garage and they burnt down bethnal green
piccadilly’s churning, like a reggae beat
soon you’re gonna be runnin’ down

those burnin’ 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?
london is burning
and it takes every day to be survivin’ in the city

the sirens’ risin’ from the east
there’s a distant blues dance on a crowded street
the temperatures are risin’
can you feel the heat?
soon you’re gonna be runnin’ down

those burnin’ streets, come on
and you’re waitin’ 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 survivin’ in the city
ready to face that dawn with no pity, come on!
yeah, ah+come on (london is burnin’)
yeah, ah+come on (london is burnin’)
can i get a witness with a smokeless heat
there’s a love triangle on a two+way street
london is burning and underneath your feet
soon you’re gonna be running down

those burning streets, come on!
does the universal cop have a beat?
and the late news breaks early
did you ever buy that bar on lucky street?
london is burning

an’ it takes every day to be survivin’ in the city
ready to face that dawn with no pity, come on!
yeah, ah+come on (london is burnin’)
yeah, ah+come on (london is burnin’)

too many guns in this d+mn town
at the supermarket, you gotta duck down
baby flak jackets on the merry+go+round
(london is burnin’)

there’s too many guns in this d+mn town
baby flak jackets on the merry+go+round
(london is burnin’)

too many guns in this d+mn town
(london is burnin’)
baby flak jackets on the merry+go+round
(london is burnin’)
