lyrics

Where is London
and all its people
going to end
kick them out
keep pushing them away
and all it’s character and local businesses
and music venues
kick them all out

What is London
going to be
and offer our communities
aside from bigger chains
and larger hotels
and even grater malls
and giant ghost houses

Stop London gentrified
Our souls still alive
We see under your disguise

Money money money
business quick
are you in or are you out?
I say kick them all out
we’re all just part of it
it's cool i'll hang in it
it's cheap i'll go for it
accepting all is happening

Richer richer richer
you’re not rich enough
to live where you were born
refining all is worn
it's ten quid for coffee and cake
tasting tyres just for the sake
feeding us all that's mistake
despite what's at stake

Stop London gentrified
Our souls still alive
We see under your disguise

We’re more and more
all wanting more
and getting poorer than we’ve been before
give me more time London gentrified
your heart has minutes quantified
more more more wanting more wanting more

Stop London gentrified
Our souls still alive
We see under your disguise
