Walking down the sidewalk
|
on a purple afternoon
|
I was accosted by a barker
|
playing a simple tune
|
Upon his flute - toot toot toot toot
|
Silver rain was falling down
|
Upon the dirty ground
|
of London Town
|
People pass me by
|
on my imaginary street
|
Ordinary people
|
it's impossible to meet
|
Holding conversations
|
that are always incomplete
|
Well, I don't know
|
Oh where are there
|
places to go
|
Someone somewhere
|
has to know
|
I don't know
|
Out of work again the actor
|
entertains his wife
|
With the same old stories
|
of his ordinary life
|
Maybe he exaggerates
|
the trouble and the strife
|
Well, I don't know
|
Oh, where are there
|
places to go
|
Someone somewhere
|
has to know
|
Crawling down the pavement
|
on a Sunday afternoon
|
I was arrested by a rozzer
|
wearing a pink balloon
|
About his foot - toot toot toot toot
|
Silver rain was falling down
|
Upon the dirty ground
|
of London Town
|
Someone somewhere
|
has to know
|
Silver rain was falling down
|
Upon the dirty ground
|
of London Town
|
