London's burning! London's burning!
    All across the town, all across the night
  Everybody's driving with full headlights
  Black or white turn it on, face the new religion
  Everybody's sitting 'round watching television!
    London's burning with boredom now
  London's burning dial 99999
    I'm up and down the Westway, in an' out the lights
  What a great traffic system - it's so bright
  I can't think of a better way to spend the night
  Then speeding around underneath the yellow lights
    London's burning with boredom now
  London's burning dial 99999
    Now I'm in the subway and I'm looking for the flat
  This one leads to this block, this one leads to that
  The wind howls through the empty blocks looking for a home
  I run through the empty stone because I'm all alone
    London's burning with boredom now...
