loud family - where the flood waters soak their belongings lyrics

our import lp’s got soaked in the flood
i thought of how i pictured london when i was ten
and then you actually go
occupied people with clear ideas of what in london came from the outside
lp’s imported, and vulnerable, so vulnerable
to water damage
the impression of london to a ten-year-old who’s never been
and the real london
in all it’s complexity
are the same thing
