Penny Loves London Town

Penny loves London Town. She's ready for her close up.
Faces all around, they're putting on her make up.
Her dress it sweeps the ground, safe now from the static.
Just a line to say "I made it here and here I shall remain".
She sits all alone as the crowds are passing by.
All living such a lie and never take the time.
As she's laid down in retreat from herself.
Melts into her bath, clinging to the path that lead her here.
Penny loves London Town.There's till time to make her,
a star in her own eyes, all it does is breaks her.
Another hit today to while away the hours.
Another hit today to say, you left me here and here I shall remain.
She won't believe that they wont see her,
such a sweet rejection of her world.
She's just in time to be evicted from a life,
that dared show her what could be.
Penny loves London Town, doomed to walk the streets here,
both dead and alive but not able to strike fear.
Penny loves London Town.
