Funky London Childhood Lyrics

Words & Music by Marc Bolan
Acoustic Demo, 1975

Ancient buildings clothed in age.
The foggy realms of Dicken's page.
School at four through knowledge door.
Yea.

It all makes up the Funky London Childhood.
It all makes up the Funky London Childhood,
Today.

Moving through the streams of life.
Cutting deep with your London knife.
City boys, now men from school.
Yea.

It all makes up the Funky London Childhood.
It all makes up the Funky London Childhood,
Today.

In and out of work is bad.
Not enough of learning makes you sad.
The gilded cage we call '75.
Some is fabulous, some is jive.

But it all makes up the Funky London Childhood.
It all makes up the Funky London Childhood,
Today.

It all makes up the Funky London Childhood,
Today.

Right now.
