paroles de chanson Towers of London (Rejected Single Recording) - 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
Pavements of gold leading to the underground
Grenadier Guardsmen walking pretty ladies around
Fog is the sweat of the never never navvies who pound
Spikes in the rails to their very own heaven
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
Bridges of muscles spanning so long and high
Merchants from Stepney walking pretty ladies by
Rain is the tears of the never never navvies who cry
For the bridge that doesn't go
In the direction of Dublin
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
And I've seen it in a painting
And I′ve seen it in engraving
And I've seen it in their faces
Clear as children′s chalk lines on the paving
And I've seen it in a painting
And I′ve seen it in engraving
And I've seen it in their faces
Clear as children's chalk lines on the paving
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
Towers of London, Towers of London
Towers of London, Towers of London
La La Londinium, La La Londinium
La La Londinium, La La Londinium
La La Londinium...
