White City - The Pogues

What a great song eh ?
Here's the lyrics ye lucky lads ! ;)

----

Here a tower shinning bright
Once stood gleaming in the night
Where now there's just the rubble
In the hole here the paddies and the frogs
Came to gamble on the dogs
Came to gamble on the dogs not long ago

Oh the torn up ticket stubs
From a hundred thousand mugs
Now washed away with dead dreams in the rain
And the car-parks going up
And they're pulling down the pubs
And its just another bloody rainy day

Oh sweet city of my dreams
Of speed and skill and schemes
Like Atlantis you just disappeared from view
And the hare upon the wire
Has been burnt upon your pyre
Like the black dog that once raced
Out from trap two

@jstohler Well, I posted that video a couple of years before the video. I also prefer the video clip but anyway mate, who really gives a shit about who's having the more views ?  Pogues rules ! Cheers
