Funky London Childhood
Marc Bolan
Ancient buildings clothed in age
The foggy realms of Dicken's page
School at four through knowledge door
It all makes up the funky London childhood
It all makes up the funky London childhood today
Moving through the streams of life
Cutting deep with your London knife
City boys, now men from school
It all makes up the funky London childhood
It all makes up the funky London childhood today
In and out of work is bad
Not enough of learning makes you sad
The gilded cage we call '75
Some is fabulous, some is jive
But it all makes up the funky London childhood
But it all makes up the funky London childhood today
It all makes up the funky London childhood
It all makes up the funky London childhood today
