London Town.
London Town is the busiest of cities
where the Monopoly board is real
with the names you know from quizzes.

It's alive with noise of traffic and chat in many tongues
where oddly dressed minstrels play tunes or sing weird songs.

The coffee in hand brigade with the mobile phone held in view
as if to show that they are cool
it's the strangest thing to do.

Another siren screaming wail as blue lights fill the air . it's 3 o'clock in the morning, there is no body else out there.
Like tiny ants the swarm of people, a mix of human kind,
some here for work some here to see and some just left behind.
some here for work some here to see and some just left behind.
The beggars ask for some loose change to make their daily bread.
But to look at the bloodshot stary eyes I think drugs or drink instead.
Maybe they came with fortune dreams
or as tourist and just stayed
but hard they find it , this city mean
did their plans just fade.

Another day as a million souls race along in droves
No one interacts at all apart from with their phones.

Headphones drown out all that matters
no eyes meet as they commute.
This is just theirs lives in tatters,
brainwashed they would dispute.

The northern hills for me I think
where the air is clean and pure.
For this city life to me it stinks
It'll kill you that's for sure.
