London Calling

London Calling Lyrics

[Verse 1]
London calling to the faraway towns
Now war is declared and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come outta’ the cupboard, ya’ boys and girls
London calling, now don’t look to us
Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we ain’t got no swing
‘Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing

[Chorus]
The ice age is coming, the sun’s zoomin’ in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growin’ thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear
Cause London is drownin’, I, live by the river

[Verse 2]
London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, you can go it alone
London calling to the zombies of death
Quit holdin’ out and draw anothеr breath
London calling and I don’t want to shout
But while we wеre talking I saw you noddin’ out
London calling, see we ain’t got no Hyde
‘Cept for that one with the yellowy eyes

[Chorus]
The ice age is coming, the sun’s zoomin’ in
Engines stop running, the wheat is growin’ thin
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
Cause London is drowning, I, I live by the river

[Chorus]
The ice age is coming, the sun’s zoomin’ in
Engines stop running, the wheat is growin’ thin
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
Cause London is drowning, I, I live by the river

[Outro]
I live by the river
I live by the river
