Well it took me a while to realise (well, in my opinion) that this song's about the Greenwich tunnel in London. It's a tunnel under the Thames, and it leakes a little... it's a bit seedy really.
Although before that dawned on me (y'know, before I listened to the lyrics properly and the place-names) I had this freaky sci-fi landscape in mind, and people being sent down to the sewer outlets to be eaten by ferocious monsters with too many limbs... just goes to show what an over-active imagination + these guys' fantastic lyrics does to you. I even drew a picture of the scene.
