Richard Thompson - I Live In Trafalgar Square lyrics

Today I've been busy removing And I'm all in a frigidy-fidge My last digs were on the Embankment - The third seat from Waterloo Bridge But the cooking - and O! the attendants - Didn't happen to suit me so well So I ordered my man to pick up- And A'look out for another hotel He did - and the new place is extra I vow If they only could see me- Where I'm staying now I live in Trafalgar Square With four lions to guard me Fountains and statues all over the place And the metropol' staring me right in the face I'll admit it's a trifle drafty But I look at it this way, you see: If it's good enough for Nelson It's quite good enough for me The beds ain't so soft as they might be Still, the temperature's never too high And it's nice to see the swells who are pa**ing Look on you with envious eyes And then when you wake in the morning Just fancy how nice it must be To have a good walk for your breakfast And the same for your dinner and tea There's many a swell up in Barclay tonight Who'd be glad if he only had my appetite? I live in Trafalgar Square With four lions to guard me Fountains and statues all over the place And the metropol' staring me right in the face I'll admit it's a trifle drafty But I look at it this way, you see: If it's good enough for Nelson It's quite good enough for me
