Lyrics:

Words And Music By Joe Jackson)

stop - What's That Sound
it's The Death Rattle Of This Rusty Old Town
stop - Listen Again
it's The Sound Of Laughter All Along The Thames

hey - What's My Line
do I Have To Stay Here 'til The End Of Time
i'm - Good-Lookin' And Bright
i Wanna See Life After Ten At Night

so If They Ask You Where I Am
i'm In The Back Of A Transit Van
in A Squat On The Earls Court Road
gone Down To London Turning Coal Into Gold
down To London - Down To London
gone Down To London To Be The King

hey - What's Your Name
the Boys Back Home All Seem To Look The Same
you - Should Stick With Me
and One Of Us Will Make It, Just You See

stop - What's That Sound
seems Like The Sixties Are Still Swingin' Around
hey - Can You Hear Me Back There
or Is There Anybody Left To Care

so If You Ask Me Where They Are
they're Hangin' Tough In A Soho Bar
playing Guitars On The Underground
gone Down To London Tryin' To Chase That Sound
down To London - Down To London
gone Down To London To Be The King

so I Ask You Should I Cry Or Laugh
drinking Tea In A Kings Cross Caff
a Leather Jacket Against The Cold
gone Down To London Turning Coal Into Gold
down To London - Down To London
gone Down To London To Be The King
