Towers Of London
XTC Towers of London when they had built you did you watch over the men who fell Towers of London when they had built you Victoria's gem found in somebody's hell Grenadier Guardsmen walking pretty ladies around Pavements of gold leading to the underground fog is the sweat of the never never navvies who pound Bridges of muscles spanning so long and high spikes in the rails to their very own heaven merchants from Stepney walking pretty ladies by for the bridge that doesn't go rain is the tears of the never never navvies who cry in the direction of Dublin And I've seen it in a painting and I've seen it in engraving clear as children's chalk lines on the paving and I've seen it in their faces Towers of London la la Londinium |
