The Show

Let me set the scene, Saturday night
 Alarm for the close ruining my hype
 I tell my mates, "Lads, excuse note for me"
 Come on summoner, the rabbi will be in
 I said I spend enough of my life just waiting in line
 And I won't let another split second go by
 I take a stroll 'round London town
 Just me on my own, see how it plays out
 So I take to the streets, just me and my lonesome
 £30 which I gave a tenner to a homeless man
 An individual whose found it hard to formulate a plan
 God knows I can relate to that, I can relate to that
 And I'll carry on moving through London town
 Just cruising 'til the lights go down
 Yeah, I'll carry on moving through London town, yeah
 And I walk around these city streets
 With my headphones blaring
 I barely got the ground beneath my feet
 The city's acting out another play for me
 And I think I will stay in my drunken haze
 I watch the show for free, I watch the show for free
 There's a lady in the street
 Asking people not to speak too loudly 'cause
 All the lads are acting rowdy
 The clubs are closed and the crowds departed
 And there's cabs queuing up round the corner
 Kebab shop lights, balloon man stories
 It's one for five, three for a tenner
 They're the perfect way to end your bender
 Couple lads on the sidewalk arguing
 Alcohol fumes, plus adrenaline
 It's a combination that'll never win
 First come police, then the ambulance
 Said first come police, then the ambulance
 And I'll carry on moving through London town
 Cruising 'til the lights go down
 Yeah, I'll carry on moving through London town, yeah
 And I walk around these city streets
 With my headphones blaring
 I barely got the ground beneath my feet
 The city's acting out another play for me
 And I think I will stay in my drunken haze
 I watch the show for free, I watch the show for free
 'Cause sometimes you see a world that you have never seen
 The good, the bad, the ugly
 And somewhere in between
 Well, these nights will highlight
 The beauty you don't notice
 In a world that's hardly coping
 We just keep on hoping, we just keep on
 Walking around these city streets
 With our headphones blaring
 Barely got the ground beneath our feet
 The city's acting out another play for me
 And I think I will stay in my drunken haze
