Nine million hearts in this city
Nine million hearts in this town
Nine million hearts
But the one that you want belongs to Judy Brown (Mum!)
Nine million different faces
All speak in a different way
If your feet can find the same beat
You'll know what they're trying to say
Let the rhythm of London in your soul
Let the rhythm of London take control
Once you let it in
Strangers will begin to feel like people that you know
Though it rains every other day
We wouldn't want it any other way
Or we wouldn't have a reason to complain
That's the rhythm of London, London, London
The rhythm of London, London, London
When you take a bus or a taxi
And Big Ben rings the hourly chime
You move to the groove of the backbeat
Keeping us in time
Now we don't all drink tea at the palace
But we still put the kettle on
While the world falls apart
Our Londoner's heart will keep calm and sing along
To the rhythm of London like a train
From the heart of this city to your brain
Once you get on board
You can be assured your life will never be the same
So if you've got fur or you've got skin
Feel the beat and you can join right in
That's when your new life here will begin
With the rhythm of London, London, London
The rhythm of London, London, London
Hear me out
From Notting Hill to Canning Town
There's so much you can see
Like Leicester Square or Charing Cross
Where you can use the loo for free
We got museums if you wanna see 'em
Or you can take a loop on the London Eye
Or one for the bucket list
You can take a trip around the great M25
Oh, so much history, so much glamour
Everywhere you go
And if you got the time
I highly recommend that you see a West End show
Oh
What is all this? What is all this?
Hello, Mr. Curry
You
I knew it
He's been here one night and already he's
Causing an unacceptable level of noise pollution
I think you'll find that noise pollution
Is the whole neighbourhood, Mr. Curry
Hello, Tania
Mm-hmm
When did you last see Windsor Gardens having this much fun?
So why don't you just join in? Let your hair down
Don't get so stressed about it
It's bad for the heart
And I know you have one in there somewhere
I've got my eye on you, bear
Oh dear
Let the rhythm of London in your soul
I am trying
Let the rhythm of London take control
Maybe I'm not quite suited to London
Of course you are
It just might take a little time
So if you've got fur or you've got skin
Feel the beat and you can join right in
That's when your new life here will begin
I'm telling you it's gonna begin
Feel the rhythm of London in the air
The rhythm of London's everywhere
Take a look around
See the sights, you know that London will be there
So if you've got fur or you've got skin
Feel the beat and you can join right in
That's when your new life here will begin
With the rhythm of London, London, London
The rhythm of London, London, London
Hey
