London Calling Lyrics

London Calling lyrics

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
