London Loves Lyrics
A malady has taken him over
Coughing tar in his japanese motor
The lights are magic
And he feels lucky
And he's got money
Shoots like an arrow - oh
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
London loves
The misery of a speeding heart
Its love u like, and everyone's at it
And words are cheap when the mind is elastic
He loves the violence
Keeps ticking over
So sleep together
Before today is sold forever
London loves
The way people just fall apart
London loves
The way you just don't stand a chance
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
O-oh o-oh o-oh o-oh
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
London loves
The misery of a speeding heart
London loves
The mystery
London loves
The way people just fall apart
London loves
The way we just don't stand a chance
London loves
A speeding heart
Coughing tar in his japanese motor
The lights are magic
And he feels lucky
And he's got money
Shoots like an arrow - oh
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
London loves
The misery of a speeding heart
Its love u like, and everyone's at it
And words are cheap when the mind is elastic
He loves the violence
Keeps ticking over
So sleep together
Before today is sold forever
London loves
The way people just fall apart
London loves
The way you just don't stand a chance
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
O-oh o-oh o-oh o-oh
London loves
The mystery of a speeding car
London loves
The misery of a speeding heart
London loves
The mystery
London loves
The way people just fall apart
London loves
The way we just don't stand a chance
London loves
A speeding heart

London=pop culture/mass media It's about empty materialism and empty sex and a guy who's blissfully engrossed in both.
I always thought that it was all about the emptiness of using cocaine.
Really cool song
This song is great... it's uderstimated
An example of a typical londoner living life fast in a city that can be so harsh.
The working title of this song was "Fripp," from Bowie guitarist Robert Fripp whose break in the song Fashion, Graham used as the basis for the guitar solo.
The lyrics recall many nuances found in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Fields_(novel)
A traffic report Damon taped from GLR [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BBC_London_94.9 ] can be heard at the end.
