Lyrics

Here is London, giddy London
Is it home of the free or what?
Can you squeeze me into an empty page of your diary
And psychologically save me?
I've got faith in you
I sense the power within the fingers
Within an hour the power could totally destroy me
Or it could save my life
Oh, here is London
Home of the brash, outrageous and free
You are repressed but you're remarkably dressed
Is it real?
And you're always busy
Really busy
Busy, busy
Oh, oh, hairdresser on fire
All around Sloane Square
And you're just so busy
Busy, busy
Busy scissors, mmm
Oh, oh, hairdresser on fire
All of the day
Was a client, over cautious
He made you nervous
And when he said, "I'm gonna sue you"
Oh, I really felt for you, mmm
So can you squeeze me into an empty page of your diary
And supernaturally change me?
Change me, change
Oh, here in London
Home of the brash, outrageous and free
You are repressed but you're remarkably dressed
Is it real?
And you're always busy
Really busy
Busy clippers, mmm
Oh, oh, hairdresser on fire
All around Sloane Square
And you're just too busy
To see me
Busy clippers, mmm
Oh, oh, hairdresser on fire
All of the day
Written by: Morrissey, Stephen Street
