London Bridge

Lyrics

(Piano intro)
 I know the times, the times are hard to bear
 It's hard to find someone to really care (the "are" in "care" is held for a while)
 But before I went down and out,
 Here's what I used to think about, think about: (the "bout" in "about" is held for a while)
 (Quick Drum Solo)
 London Bridge is always fallin' down,
 But there it stood within the heart of town,
 Reminding everyone of life behind and life to come...
 (Piano mixed with cymbals play)
 The changes taking place are everywhere,
 (Special Keyboard "Voice" plays)
 The centuries past have nothing to compare ("are", prounounced as air, in "compare" is held for a while)
 Where they stand, where they trip and fall
 Watch the writing on the wall, on the wall
 (Drums, Piano, Chorus, and Singers)
 London Bridge is fallin' down at last,
 And so another memory of the past
 Has fell beneath the blade, but soon the dead may be repaid
 (Special Keyboard "Voice" Solo)
 I know things just can't evolve for all eternity
 The thoughts will leave, will never die,
 and now so you can see (The "ee" in "see" is held for a long time)
 (Horns/Trumpets, Drums, Piano, Cymbals, Chorus, and Singers)
 London Bridge is finally fallin' down,
 It packed it up and shipped it outta town
 And though the horror's gone, the memory will linger on
 London Bridge is finally fallin' down,
 It used to stand within the heart of town
 Reminding everyone of life behind and life to come
 London Bridge is finally fallin' down...(fades)
