Lily Allen - LDN
Riding through ______1 city on my bike all day
Cause the filth took away ______2 my licence
It doesn't get me down and I feel ok
Cause ______3 sights that I'm seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper,
but he's sittin with ______4 slapper
Then I see it's ______5 pimp and his crack whore
You might laugh you might frown
Walkin' round ______6 London town
[Chorus]
Sun is in ______7 sky oh why oh why ?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in ______8 sky oh why oh why ?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
you can see it's all ______9 lies
There was ______10 little old lady, who was walkin
down ______11 road
She was struggling with bags from ______12 Tesco
There were people from ______13 city havin lunch in
______14 park
I believe that it's called "al fresco"
Then ______15 kid came along to offer ______16hand
But before she had time to accept it
hits her over the head, doesn't care if she's dead
Cause he's got all ______17her jewellery and wallet
You might laugh you might frown
walkin round ______18 London town
[Repeat Chorus]
Life, that's city life, yeah that's city life, that's city life
Life, that's city life, yeah that's city life, that's city life
[Chorus]
