Lyrics

Take a look round lively old London
 Buzzing crowds we sweat and we revel
 Red-cheeked shouts and songs
 In the flicker of the gaslight
 Eager Blighty bursts from the cobblestones
 Racing, climbing blooming fertility
 Born from secret seeds
 That were scattered in the nighttime
 London is fed upon the meat of the dead
 They're one shallow inch below the town
 Underground
 Underground
 Leave them underground
 ♪
 Them that whispered dreams that only poisoned us
 Them that told us lies of their bravery
 Them that preached of progress, and put us in the poorhouse
 Them done horrid murder on bloody stages
 Them that loudly crowed their humility
 Lords and dames that sung in the chapels on a Sunday
 All quiet now
 Their mouths are stopped up by mud
 They lie flung in rags and make no sound
 Underground
 Underground
 Leave them underground
 ♪
 Those who fought for something better
 Those who taught by how they lived
 Loved ones taken long before their work was done
 Underground
 Underground
 Leave them underground
 Underground
 Underground
 Leave them underground
 Underground
 Underground
 Leave them underground
 Underground
 Underground
 Leave them underground
 
 Take a look round lively old London
 Buzzing crowds we sweat and we revel
 Red-cheeked shouts and songs
 In the flicker of the gaslight
 Eager Blighty bursts from the cobblestones
 Racing, climbing blooming fertility
 Born from secret seeds
 That were scattered in the nighttime
 London is fed upon the meat of the dead
 They're one shallow inch below the town
