A city freeze get on your knees[00:00:19]
Pray for warmth and green paper[00:00:24]
A city drought you're down and out[00:00:28]
See your trousers don't taper[00:00:33]
Saddle up kick your feet[00:00:38]
Ride the range of a London street[00:00:43]
Travel to a local plane[00:00:48]
Turn around and come back again[00:00:52]
And at the chime of the city clock[00:01:01]
Put up your road block hang on to your crown[00:01:04]
For a stone in a tin can[00:01:11]
Is wealth to the city man who leaves his armor down[00:01:13]
Stay indoors beneath the floors[00:01:31]
Talk with neighbors only[00:01:35]
The games you play make people say[00:01:40]
You're either weird or lonely[00:01:45]
A city star won't shine too far[00:01:50]
On account of the way you are[00:01:55]
And the beads around your face[00:01:59]
Make you sure to fit back in place[00:02:04]
And at the beat of the city drum[00:02:13]
See how your friends come in twos or threes or more[00:02:16]
For the sound of a busy place is fine for a pretty face[00:02:23]
Who knows what a face is for[00:02:28]
The city clown will soon fall down[00:02:59]
Without a face to hide in[00:03:04]
And he will lose if he won't choose[00:03:09]
The one he may confide in[00:03:14]
Sonny boy with smokes for sale[00:03:18]
Went to ground with a face so pale[00:03:24]
And never heard about the change[00:03:28]
Showed his hand and fell out of range[00:03:33]
In the light of a city square[00:03:42]
Find out the face that's fair keep it by your side[00:03:45]
When the light of the city falls[00:03:51]
You fly to the city walls take off with your bride[00:03:54]
But at the chime of a city clock[00:04:01]
Put up your road block hang on to your crown[00:04:04]
For a stone in a tin can[00:04:11]
Is wealth to the city man who leaves his armor down[00:04:14]
