Carl Barât - Fame and Fortune lyrics

[Verse 1: Pete Doherty] Seeking fame and fortune We walk the streets of London Looking for the crossroads everywhere Holed up in squats in theatre bars There's a slasher on the Holloway boulevard Screaming: "Monkey, monkey, mon-key everywhere" [Chorus: Pete Doherty/Carl Barât] Like tin soldiers responding to the call To Camden we will crawl One and all Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord By icons we were lured One and all [Verse 2: Carl Barât] Seeking fame and fortune Old Nick says: ”come on then, I'll meet you in the shadows by Rochester square” The deal was done, the trade was rough Doubloons down for a double bluff Dip your quill in your bleeding heart Sign there and there and there [Chorus: Peter Doherty/Carl Barât] Like tin soldiers responding to the call To Camden we will crawl One and all Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord By icons we were lured One and all [Bridge: Peter Doherty/Carl Barât] Oh, they were as boys, tell me what then did they know What was it they learned and where did they go Now listen to the voice of the city morning air If you're looking for something that's never been there [Verse 3: Pete Doherty] If you're seeking fame and fortune Walking the streets of London Looking for the crossroads everywhere Hold on to your dreams, however bleak it seems The world they may not listen, but the devil may care [Chorus: Pete Doherty/Carl Barât] Like tin soldiers responding to the call To Camden we will crawl One and all Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord By icons we were lured One and all
