It's been a long flight babe
It took almost all night babe
And it seemed to me like eternity
When I walked along through London City
Nobody was talking anymore
Nobody was singing on Picadilly
Nobody was working in the factory

So I went on old Compton Street
An bought a pair of new big glossy shoes

It’s been a long flight babe
It took almost all night babe
And it seemed to me like eternity
When I walked along through London City
Nobody was talking anymore
Nobody was singing on Picadilly
Nobody was working in the factory

And I heard that the Beatles
Gave their clothes to people
Who broke their windows

It's been a long flight babe
It took almost all night babe
And it seemed to me like eternity
When I walked along through London City
Nobody was talking anymore
Nobody was singing on Picadilly
Nobody was working in the factory
So I took a cab
An old black cab
And went away
Alone on the wrong side of the road
