BLN Lyrics

Everybody chattin' about the LDN
So I thought I'd have a chat about the BLN
Now I learnt what I learnt in the LDN
And I'm taking it through to the BLN
There's a lot I can learn from the BLN
And I'm gonna match up with the LDN
I don't need to brag about the East End
Got the best of both worlds innit in the end?
Why's everybody's chatting bout the LDN
when we know what's going off in the BLN?
Just looks that the people up in marketing
have got a bigger budget up for the LDN
Everytime an MC mentions the Big Ben
then the Queen will come along and she will sponsor them
They're tryin to build a hype about the LDN
just like they did with John Lennon and the Beatles back then
You wouldn't see me wearing no Union Jack
You wouldn't see me waving no German Flag
and you wouldn't catch me with a flag from my Tamil dad
'coz I really think that flags are really rather wack.

If everybody's ravin' 'bout the LDN,
then why they all flying to the BLN?
Hordes of English tourists on the Easy Jet
coming to Berlin to get out their head
Just too many rules in the LDN
You're not allowed to do much in the LDN
Party people free in the BLN
They never close the clubs even at 10 am
No people wearing suits allowed to run round them
No ?drink up drink up? security men
When I was 22 I'd had enough of them
Sitting on the tube and pubs that close at 10

Don't underestimate the power of the Berlin TV Tower.
Don't underestimate the power of the Berlin TV Tower.
Don't underestimate the power of the Berlin TV Tower.

You gotta step up the marketing Berlin
London is ahead on blowing up their thing
Is that what makes good old Berlin Berlin?
There ain't no mouthy wankers shouting "BLN"!
