London Calling

The Clash

London Calling (Original Version)

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, you boys and girls
London calling, now don't look at us
Phoney Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
Except for the ring of that truncheon thing

The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
Meltdown expected the wheat is growing thin
Engines stop running but I have no fear
Cause London is drowning, and I live by the river

London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it brother, and 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 while 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, the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear era, but I have no fear
Cause London is drowning, and I, I live by the river
(Repeat x2)

Now get this
London calling, yeah, I was there too
And you know what they said?
Well, some of it was true!
London calling at the top of the dial
After all this, won't you give me a smile?

(London calling)

I never felt so much alike
