Sights, Sounds & Smells lyrics

Trains it down on the quarter past
Friday night, leaves the kids at home
And struts her stuff on the Huston Road

Saying, "Do you want some company, darling?
Do you want some company now?
My place, your place some [Incomprehensible] place
I could use the extra cash anyhow"

That's the sights and sounds of London Town
The sights and sounds of London Town
The sights and sounds of London Town

Oh, Jean-Paul, he came over from Toulouse
They taught him that London was the golden goose
He never got his hands on enough to eat
He never did get his arse up off the street

Wanted to be a rap DJ
They took his pulse then they turned him away
Under the radar of your fellow man
Well all that charisma, it ain't worth a damn

Saying, "Lend me your shoes till Monday
Oh, brother can you lend me a comb
I can wash dishes all night long
I just need my fare back home"

That's the sights and sounds of London Town
The sights and sounds of London Town
The sights and sounds of London Town

Well, Jackie, she tried just about everything
She tried to dance, she tried to sing
Too many doors slammed in your face
It leaves a nasty aftertaste

You scramble around for a little bit of cash
Ease the pain with Mister Flash
Saint Anne's Court is the rendezvous
For those who share your point of view

Saying, "This is the last time you will see me
Never again, no way
One more time, I'll never ask you again
I've just got to get through today"

Well, that's the sights and sounds of London Town
The sights and sounds of London Town
The sights and sounds of London Town

Oh, Mickey, he sleeps every two or three days
Runs through Soho like a rat through a maze
A little blackmail here, a sting on the side
Enough to get started on the next enterprise

Dresses expensive but that's just a crutch
Like his word or his handshake, it doesn't mean much
Depends on his kickback from the middle man
And whatever he can beat out of Sally Ann

Saying, "Lucky I'm the one you ran into
Oh lucky, I've taken a shine
Lucky, I'm needing a partner
50/50, right down the line"

Well, that's the sights and sounds of London Town
The sights and sounds of London Town
The sight and sounds of London Town

Trains it down on the quarter past
Friday night, leaves the kids at home
