Yes, it has been two days now since I've seen Lily Allen in concert and I am still on that wonderful after-high that comes after a great show. Here's a tune from her first album, Alright, Still, that I loved from the moment I heard it. The song is called LDN, meaning 'London' and it's another example of what makes Lily so unique. It was one of the tunes she performed the other night and you should definitely check out the video and the lyrics below...
LDN
Riding through the city on my bike all day
Cause the filth took away my license
It doesn't get me down and I feel okay
Cause the sights that I'm seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper and he's sittin' with a slapper
Then I see it's a pimp and his crack whore
You might laugh, you might frown
Walkin' round the mid town
Sun is in the sky
Oh why, oh why would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky
Oh why, oh why would I wanna be anywhere else?
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it's all lies
There was a little old lady, who was walkin' down the road
She was struggling with bags from Tesco
There were people from the city havin' lunch in the park
I believe that is called al fresco
When a kid came along to offer a hand
But before she had time to accept it
Hits her over the head, doesn't care if she's dead
Cause he's got all her jewelry and wallet
You might laugh, you might frown
Walkin' round the mid town
Sun is in the sky
Oh why, oh why would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky
Oh why, oh why would I wanna be anywhere else?
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it's all lies
Life
Yeah, that's city life
Yeah, that's city life
Yeah, that's city life
Life
Yeah, that's city life
Yeah, that's city life
Yeah, that's city life
Sun is in the sky
Oh why, oh why would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky
Oh why, oh why would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky
Oh why, oh why would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky
Oh why, oh why would I wanna be anywhere else?
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it's all lies
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it's all lies
