Song Lyrics London Underground

 London Underground 

Verse 1:

I'm on the underground

The oldest and the best

I'm riding through the city

With all the rest


Pre-chorus:

It's a journey like no other

It's a thrill like none before

It's a wonder of the world

It's the London underground


Chorus:

Underground, underground

You take me where I want to be

Underground, underground

You show me what I want to see

Underground, underground

You make me feel alive and free

Underground, underground

You're the only one for me


Verse 2:

I'm on the underground

The deepest and the widest

I'm passing by the stations

With all their stories and secrets


Pre-chorus:

It's a journey like no other

It's a thrill like none before

It's a wonder of the world

It's the London underground


Chorus:

Underground, underground

You take me where I want to be

Underground, underground

You show me what I want to see

Underground, underground

You make me feel alive and free

Underground, underground

You're the only one for me


Bridge:

You're more than just a tube

You're a lifeline of the town

You're more than just a train

You're a legend of London


Chorus:

Underground, underground

You take me where I want to be

Underground, underground

You show me what I want to see

Underground, underground

You make me feel alive and free

Underground, underground

You're the only one for me


Outro:

Underground, underground

You take me where I want to be

Underground, underground

You show me what I want to see

Underground, underground

You make me feel alive and free

Underground, underground

You're the only one for me

France

 Just checked the stats for today 22/09/2022 in the afternoon and this site has had more hits from the great folks in France than in the U.K., yes a shock but I am based in the south of the U.K. not far from a city called London, you may even have heard of it I dare say. Anyway getting back to the point and the reason for this blog post is that I appear to be more popular in a country that does not have English as its first language yet it is looking at this site.

How does that happen?

I don’t care just as they may have got something from this website, what they got from it I suspect I will never know.

Anyway I shall keep a look out to see if today was just a flash in the pan and that all the hits from France were just a mistake.

Donna


Donna on the Albert Embankment London Year Unknown  (Edit from 2022 its 1984!)




Donna


This image of Donna was taken in London on the Albert Embankment near Lambeth bridge.

Sadly I do not know when this picture was taken, I know that I took it as I had to travel up to London to meet Donna.

She looks a little sad?

Me in Sept 2022
I think I have found the year the picture was taken

Which is 1984!

This is so long ago, (looking back from 2022) the thing is that I remember taking the picture as we where on our way to Waterloo train station to catch a train back to Farnham. 

What I can not remember is, what I took the picture with!

I think it was a camera and not a phone were digital camera's at a price that I could afford back then,  I just don't know.

I still like this photo.

I may just edit and put up here a photo of Donna with a smile and see if it ruins the picture.

Odd Thought

I was reading somewhere, not to sure where it was now, but anyway I was reading about how in the late 1890's London's streets had a real problem with the waste material from all the thousands of horses that used the London streets back then.

Now my odd thought was where did all that horse manure go to, and who moved it all and when cars and buses started to come in and started to take over the jobs of the horses, what did the people who cleaned up after the horses do?

I know lots of questions, and when I did a Google it was not very good at giving me the sort of answers I wanted, for some reason it was far more interested in giving me results that lead me to stuff to buy, which not what I wanted, this is not the first time that I have been let down by Google, if this sort of thing carrys on I shall have to look at using a differant search engine.

Reading Now

Now reading Flood by Stephen Baxter
Which so far has been a great read, the way that he destroys London is so real that you feel that you are seeing it on the TV, at this stage in the book 200 pages in I don't have a clue as to how its all going to turn out.

As I only get the chance to read for an hour a day its going to be a few days yet until I find out, and I can't wait to see what Stephen is going to do.

Earthquake UK

So wakes up to the news that the UK had an earthquake at 1am this morning, 5.3 on some scale or other, not sure what to think other than I am glad that no one was killed. Did I feel the trumors? no but folks in London and Dover did.
