The Puzzlers - This Is Not London Lyrics

There's an ivory tower filled with parasites
Who can't distinguish wrong from right
Work in the shadows peddling their lies
No-one can reach them because nobody tries

You can't fool all the people throughout this land
From a place where lies and deceit go hand in hand

This is not London
It's not your green and pleasant land
This is not London
You will not come here cap in hand
This is not London
There's more to life than staying alive
This is not London
It's where the lion rampant flies

There's a concrete jungle full of snakes that bite
Who live clandestine lives with their whores at night
Shoulder to shoulder they did not think we'd stand
Against their house of cards with our hearts in our hands

You can't fool all the people throughout this land
From a place where lies and deceit go hand in hand

This is not London
It's not your green and pleasant land
This is not London
You will not come here cap in hand
This is not London
There's more to life than staying alive
This is not London
It's where the lion rampant flies

There's an ivory tower filled with parasites
Who can't distinguish wrong from right
Work in the shadows peddling their lies
No-one can reach them because nobody tries

You can't fool all the people throughout this land
From a place where lies and deceit go hand in hand

This is not London
It's not your green and pleasant land
This is not London
You will not come here cap in hand
This is not London
There's more to life than staying alive
This is not London
It's where the lion rampant flies

This is not London
This is not London
This is not London
This is not London
