London's a dump
Seriously, they need to fix that place up.

1. My dear Bucky!
I don't know where you got that picture, but I gotta tell you, London doesn't look anything like that!

It's a gorgeous, cosmopolitan city, I'll have you know!

You're pulling my leg, aren't you?

:P

2. What, me? Yank your chain? Shirley, you jest!
You gonna disbelieve photographic evidence? The Thames River's run dry and the Parliament House has burned down. I'm sure the East End is just fine, but downtown is clearly in need of "privitisation" if this photo is to be believed. ;)

4. I feel a song coming on ....
London calling to the faraway towns
Now war is declared, and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, you boys and girls
London calling, now don't look to us
Phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Meltdown expected, the wheat is growing thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear
'Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river

London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, you can go it alone
London calling to the zombies of death
Quit holding out, and draw another breath
London calling, and I don't wanna shout
But while we were talking, I saw you nodding out
London calling, see we ain't got no high
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes

The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Engines stop running, the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error, but I have no fear
'Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river

Now get this

London calling, yes, I was there, too
An' you know what they said? Well, some of it was true!
London calling at the top of the dial
After all this, won't you give me a smile?
London calling

I never felt so much alike alike alike alike
