Do you know the me that wakes and see's the livewire in her eyes
The IT girl with the twist girl
And no-one realises
That I'm living on a tightrope
I can't, I won't look down
I pussyfoot from drink to drink
In swinging London Town
D'you know the me that wakes in places...faces I've never seen?
The mother of all hangovers
To remind me where I've been
And if I stop, I'm sickened
It really gets me down
So I step back into the city lights
The Queen of London Town
It's the Queen of London Town
It's the Queen of London Town
New York, Monacco, Paris and Milan
Poor little rich girl who does it cos she can
I'm just a big time Gucci girl
A thirst in retail therapy
Now we're down the slide to rehab
And all the gear for free
And with these joke filled egos
Martini sipping charm
Gigolos - stick-thin models hanging off their arm
I guess I'm neck deep in it
I'm starting to drown
Along with all the wannabes
In swinging London Town
Do you know me?
Do you know me?
Do you know me?
Really, really know me?
[Repeat]
Do you know me?
Really, really know me?
Soho Soaks drink Campari
Free flowing bubbly
A drop of gin
Cocktails with pricetags make you choke on your sushi
Dressed to impress - these bright young things
Chelsea Chicks drink white wine spritzers
G and T's or bottled beer
Hooray Henries crusing the Kings Road
And Daddy's Bently stocked full of gear
Gear, gear, gear, gear...
Do you know the me...the face that graces the pages of 'Hello'?
Try hard to die hard
United on the go
Air kissing eligible bachelors
Their trust fund daddy's boys
International playgirls
Showing off their toys
And all these price tag starlets
A galaxy of stars
Buzzing round the next big thing
And checking out their cars
I guess I'm neck deep in it
I'm starting to drown
Along the wannabes
In swinging London Town
Swinging London Town
