My heart is yearning
It seems the better takes a long time in coming
When you see what's happening
All over London
We're in a dread tribulation
Cause there is rising inflation
There is no work in North London
Down in the Labrador or in the Brixton
Oh, it's the same situation
I know you feel it, West London
In the Shepherd's Bush or in the Halston
All over London
Well
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Wee-oo-wee-oo
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Wee-oo-wee-oo
My heart is bleeding
It seems the system is in need of reviewing
But when you see what's happening
All over London
We're in a crucial position
Some of us can find accommodation
No, there's no homes in South London
Down in the Battersea or in the Croydon
The youth, they cannot show their full potential
In a little wish and moreover in one's world
In a crippled wood or in a doll's pen
All over London
In a crippled land and I'm holding down for justice
For the truths and rights who leaves my soul
In a crippled land and I'm holding down for justice
A revolution
Must be the easing of some pressure
Yes, a revolution
It is the wailing of the poor
A revolution
A revolution
My heart is hurting
It seems things don't seem to be improving
Look what's happening
All over London
Oh, and I check it, my brethren
Oh, it's the same situation
Whether down in the Labrador or in the Princeton
We all suffer just like East London
Oh, what a day
What a situation
Due to this rising inflation
I know you're feelin' in a England
Oh, there's no ease up in a region
There are people down there falling down for justice
For the truths and rights who leaves my soul
People down there falling down for justice
For the truths and rights who leaves my soul
A revolution
A revolution
Must be the easing of the pressure
Yes, a revolution
It is the wailing of the poor
It is the wailing of the poor
