This Is War

The lovers and the ne'er do wells the fakers and the wastrels
 Thrown together in this filth and fighting for survival
 The dancers and the chancers and the ones to be avoided
 The thinkers and the drinkers and the downright disappointed
 The winners and the sinners, the broken and the tragic
 The losers and the bruisers and the frantically romantic
 The soon to be somebodies, the fallen and the has-beens
 The witty pretty city kids, the ravers of the new scene
 This is life and this is war
 This is us we're fighting for
 This is London, this is now
 We've all got something that we're fighting for
 This is war
 The rushing and the pushing this old town it pulls 'em to it
 The highways and the byways and the river running through it
 The brick and mud is in my blood, we know each others secrets
 Well never shall I be untrue and never shall I leave it
 This is life, this is war
 This is us we're fighting for
 This is London, this is now
 We've all got something that we're fighting for
 This is war
 This is war
 Raise your cannons, raise your colours
 Flash against the sky above us
 Fight the fight, the fight we live with
 Keep your wits about you
 This is war
 This is London, this is now
 This is war
 A siren sounds a wake up call
 This is war
 London bridge is falling down
 This is war
 This is war
