Get Outta London Lyrics by Aztec Camera

Get Outta London

Words and music by roddy frame


The sun dying on a dusty room,
Tv lying to me through the gloom,
Even remote control cant change this mood,
Get outta london while the gettings good,
Get outta london while I know I could,
Get outta london.

Trains come just ride and believe,
The engine runnings all the music I need,
Ive got a fear of the past and a hunger to feed,
Get outta london and you shall be free,
Get outta london and its guaranteed,
Get outta london.

I walked the avenue of dumb signs,
Meant nothing and it felt fine,
Then I remembered what was really mine,
A silver shiver running down my spine.

Down where the streets are pave with sick schemes,
The rivers running like a snake through a dream,
The politicians gaze across its slime,
I need another way to waste my time,
Get outta london, get outta london.

I saw the spectre of charity,
And he didnt seem brotherly,
Popping up what should be blown away.
A brotherhood of man in disarray,
I got hit by the dreamers disease,
Where your big ideas,
Dont make connection with your buckling knees,
And saw the greed and agreed that it sucked,
But they said, "dont laugh at money cos its bad luck"
Get outta london, get outta london.
