London calling to the faraway towns  
Now that war is declared and battle come down  
London calling to the underworld  
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls

Put another nickel in  
In the nickelodeon  
All I want is having you  
And music, music, music

Not in play…

Put another nickel in  
In the nickelodeon –  
It still won’t play 'cause now it costs  
A dollar, dollar, dollar.  
_(sorry, I just couldn’t resist…)_

Oh, say, don’t you remember? They called me “Al”

Buddy, can you spare a dime?

Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die  
Lord, I wanna go to Heaven, but I don’t wanna go tonight  
Fill my boots up with sand  
Put a stiff drink in my hand  
Prop me up beside the jukebox if I die

Hey, mister, that’s me up on the jukebox  
Well, I’m the one who’s singing this sad song  
And I cry every time  
That you slip in one more dime  
And have the boy play the sad one, one more time

That’s me in the corner  
That’s me in the spotlight  
Losing my religion  
Trying to keep up with you  
And I don’t know if I can do it  
Oh no I’ve said too much  
I haven’t said enough

Everybody’s talkin’ at me  
I don’t hear a word they’re sayin’  
Only the echoes of my mind  
People stoppin’, starin’  
I can’t see their faces  
Only the shadows of their eyes

I’m going where the sun keeps shinin’  
Through the pourin’ rain  
Going where the weather suits my clothes  
Bankin’ off of the northeast winds  
Sailin’ on a summer breeze  
And skippin’ over the ocean like a stone

In the summertime  
When the weather is fine  
You can stretch right up  
And touch the sky
