Carl Barât And The Jackals - The Gears lyrics

[Verse 1] London's still burning down Revolution need's returning now For wasted youth in topman jeans [Verse 2] Out on the frontline Just canaries in the coalmine So sick at heart that you can't breathe [Chorus] So sing alone like it's the last time And throw your bodies on the gears We'll have the party of a lifetime You'll hear it ringing in your ears [Verse 3] I came from old town Soon enough they kicked me off the high ground Booze and barbiturates keeping me down [Chorus] So sing along like it's the last time And throw your bodies on the gears This is the party of a lifetime You'll hear it ringing in your Oh-Oh-Oh [Chorus] So sing along like it's the last time And throw your bodies on the gears The sound of apathy of freedom You'll hear it ringing in your ears
