Lyrics
Welcome to the Clash bar club
London calling to the faraway town
A war is declared, and battle comes down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, you boys and girls
London calling, now don't look to us
Phony Beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, we ain't got no swing
'Cept for the ring of that truncheon thing
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Meltdown expected, wheat is growing thin
Nuclear era, I have no fear
London is drowning and I live by the river
London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, walk it alone
London calling to the zombies of death
Quit holding out and draw another breath
London calling, I don't wanna shout
While we were talking, I saw you nodding out
London calling, we ain't got no high
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Meltdown expected, wheat is growing thin
Nuclear era, I have no fear
London is drowning and I live by the river
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ah, ah, ah, ah
The ice age is coming, the sun's zooming in
Engines stop running, wheat is growing thin
Nuclear era, I have no fear
London is drowning and I live by the river
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
Now get this
London calling, yes, I was there too
You know what they said?
Well, some of it was true
London calling at the top of the towel
And after all this, won't you give me a smile?
London calling
London calling
Whoa, never felt so much like I, I do
