"London's Bloody Cry" lyrics

"London's Bloody Cry"

Slaves in seas of soot we drown
Come on down to London Town
The cogs they creak
And the pistons pound
Come on down to London Town

Power cloaked in progress
Smoke in Eden eyes
A million choking chimneys burn
And blacken out the sky
So grab your mates and join us
Where the rats rejoice
The brazen brass of the working class
Are here to find their voice

Revolution holds us bound
Come on down to London Town
Break your back for class and crown
Come on down to London Town

Steam train running on a reckless rail
Speeding right into the rising gale
Shovel harder cause we're on your tail
London's Bloody Cry

(La la la la la la la la la)
London's Bloody Cry

Cripple to deliver
The spoils of industry
Crimson are the rivers
Bleed our grief into the sea

Slaves in seas of soot we drown
Come on down to London town
The cogs they creak and the pistons pound
Come on down to London town

Steam train running on a reckless rail
Speeding right into the rising gale
Shovel harder cause we're on your tail
London's bloody cry

(La la la la la la la la la)
Cry revolution, broken dreams
Cruel revolution smoke and steam
London's Bloody Cry

Come on down to London Town
Come on down to London Town

Cry revolution, broken dreams
Cruel revolution smoke and steam
