Day on the Town

Summer in London, watery sunshine

A place in the city where I can go sometimes

To get on a red bus and go anywhere

See all the sights and not pay the fare

Summer in London

Chip on your shoulder, chips in your mouth

Can you see the old lady, with tickets to tout

Getting the tourists into their traps

Taking their money, the shirts off their backs

Summer in London

To get in a taxi and go anywhere

Jump out at the park and not pay the fare

Watch Speakers Corner, listen to their talk

Eating their ice creams, going for a walk

Summer in London, the weather man said

Waking up late, got to get out of bed

So much to do, got to go everywhere

A day on the town and not pay the fare

Riots in London
