Heck/Thomson
Lyrics
I count the days just like a prisoner
Mental notches on the wall
It don’t make the days go faster
It don’t speed the time at all
A fabulous town
Is bringing me down
I’m lonely in London town
On the Tube just watching people
Camden Town to Waterloo
I’ll kiss you in St. Paul’s Cathedral
I’ve got London plans for you
A fabulous town
Is bringing me down
I’m lonely in London town
Are you ready for London
Coz London is ready for you
Are you ready for London
God knows that I – God knows that I’m ready, too
Days drag by in ankle bracelets
Nights are hauling balls and chains
I’m tired of watching strangers’ faces
When will you get on that plane?
A fabulous town
Is bringing me down
I’m lonely in London town
Are you ready for London
Coz London is ready for you
Are you ready for London
God knows that I – God knows that I’m ready, too
(Chorus)
