London Calling lyrics

[bonus track]



London calling to the faraway towns

Now that war is declared-and battle come down

London calling to the underworld

Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls

London calling, now don`t look at us

All that phoney 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 is zooming in

Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin

A nuclear error, but I have no fear

London is drowning-and I live by the river



London calling to the imitation zone

Forget it, brother, an` go it alone

London calling upon the zombies of death

Quit holding out-and draw another breath

London calling-and I don`t wanna shout

But when we were talking-I saw you nodding out

London calling, see we ain`t got no highs

Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in

Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin

A nuclear error, but I have no fear

London is drowning-and I live by the river



I live by the river
