london i.c.a

Institute of the contemporary arts
down the mall by the green park
Buckingham palace a shining light
London eye to big ben chimes of time
white marble stands a victoria pride
Olympic Mittal orbit design fine ride
 
 
sir Winston Churchill best leader in prime
world war two operation sea loin doomed
London alone night bombings of the blitz
German fritz spitfire down Luftwaffe to bits
 
tower of London  make me wonder
British empire was bit like thunder
London bridge Thames down under
modern Tate new bridge was s blunder
to Damien Hirst Tracy emin  cow and bed
all in the head
 
walk in Hyde park swim in the serpentine lake
trooping of the colours queen upon we all take the salute
red and blues regiments lower standard awaits
 
 
go shopping in Harrods to buy a wealthy tart
made in Chelsea down the road  a roman cart
looking upon we find great landmark cutty sark
run the London marathon  in the bloody dark
 
at tudors traitors gate king henry VIII wife to late
Anne Boleyn beheaded at the tower for being queen
archbishop of  Canterbury head upon a gory stake
Mary queen of Scots Catholic faith was her only fate
 
 
on to ten downing street the prime ministers lair
Richard the loin heart to Oliver Cromwell stare
past march the hour cenotaph salute the fallen
poppy's of bloody red shed a tear of fallen years
the great fire of London swept the city such a pity
fleet st news to st Pauls dome looks just like rome
city of London where thee be afore all thy  regrets
of nelson to Trafalgar square we all love to share

Worked in london in late
1970 lived in syon park
