(McPherson/Foreman)
The Government have announced
That London Bridge is to be closed
Under the full moon of May the third
All the lighthouses and seaside roads
No I never I never read in the news
Come on tell me who's this for
Lighting the questions and
Burning the boats one by one
Burning the boats one by one
Tap tap tap birds that sing
Telephone calls that do not ring
One two three what's the time
Who's that hanging off my line?
I know that nothing last forever
And I'm just waiting for the sun to set
Blowing dust from my loud hailer
On the roof
Come on tell me who's this for
Lighting the questions and
Burning the boats one by one
Burning the boats one by one
Burning the boats one by one
The ministry of co operation
Washed and hanging on the line
There's a million burning questions
To set the Thames alight
Now I've joined an exclusive club
Just by being more than poor
Saw the deputy chairman
On the floor
Come on tell me who's this for
Lighting the questions and
Burning the boats one by one
Burning the boats one by one
Burning the boats one by one
Burning the boats one by one
Burning the boats one by one
