Maybe Songtext

von Booze & Glory

They say the streets of London, they say they paved with gold
Well it's hard to believe with 2 million on the dole
You paid your taxes all your life, hard times are ahead we're told
You're not looking for a handout but just what you are owed
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
And I love London Town
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That my city lets me down
We built the high rise buildings and dug tunnels under ground
We laid the railway tracks, we invented new towns
But now the works dried up and what thanks do we get
The choice of underpaid work or a pisspoor welfare check
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
And I love London Town
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That my city lets me down
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
And I love London Town
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That my city lets me down
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
And I love London Town
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That my city lets me down
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
And I love London Town
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner
That my city lets me down
