[Chorus: Lily Allen]
There used to be a day when you could roam the streets
All night and stay out with your friends, blud
Now you can't even walk to the shop without a little kid
Saying, "What you doing in my ends, blud?"
Now, I used to be here on the street
Before this little kid was even wearing pyjamas
Now the new generation of LDN
Wanna mess about and cause dramas

[Verse 1: Jme]
Hello, hi, my name's Jme
And I'm more street than what you drive your car on
This is my Lily Allen remix
You know, she's got tracks with a bass guitar on
The reason I done this?
'Cause there's kids on road that are so far gone
Walking around all day and all night
Like Super Mario with a star on
I'mma stop their invincibility
I'm the molten lava
Teach kids to stick with education
Forget the street drama
But all I can do is talk
It's up to you to choose to listen
If not, you can walk the walk
But you might go missing
[Chorus: Lily Allen]
There used to be a day when you could roam the streets
All night and stay out with your friends, blud
Now you can't even walk to the shop without a little kid
Saying, "What you doing in my ends, blud?"
Now, I used to be here on the street
Before this little kid was even wearing pyjamas
Now the new generation of LDN
Wanna mess about and cause dramas

[Bridge: Lily Allen & Jme]
They will let shots fly (They will let shots fly)
This is London life (This is London life)
It's dangerous outside (It's dangerous outside)
They've got guns and knives (They've got guns and knives)
Shanks!

[Verse 2: Jme]
See, I'm Boy Better Know t-shirt rocking
CD shotting, government mocking
Hold tight Tom MySpace, chart-topping
Skate park's dropping
Catch me slipping in my ends
With 3310s, just bopping
You need to walk with protection nowadays
I found out the hard way, it was shocking
Hello taser, yeah, it's shocking
I'm a Winchmore sixth form rider
I'm boring, I don't even drink cider
I'm not naive, though
I'm wiser than the girls out of True Tiger and Ruff Ryder
I'm trying to make grime wider
I'm a ninja, I'm like Tinchy Stryder
I don't leave my house
Unless it is P's, I stay on the web, I'm a spider
[Chorus: Lily Allen]
There used to be a day when you could roam the streets
All night and stay out with your friends, blud
Now you can't even walk to the shop without a little kid
Saying, "What you doing in my ends, blud?"
Now, I used to be here on the street
Before this little kid was even wearing pyjamas
Now the new generation of LDN
Wanna mess about and cause dramas

[Bridge: Lily Allen]
They will let shots fly (They will let shots fly)
This is London life (This is London life)
It's dangerous outside (It's dangerous outside)
They've got guns and knives (They've got guns and knives)

[Outro: Lily Allen]
Sun is in the sky oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
