Luyện nghe bài hát Overture

This is the of the Liberty Of Norton Folgate

Old Jack Norris, the musical shrimp and the ramble...

A little bit of this, would you a bit of that

But in weather like this, you should a coat, a nice warm hat
A needle and thread the hand stitches of
Levinsky versus Jackie Burk
Bobbing and weaving, an line

So step for step and both on our feet
We'll travel many along dim silent

Would you like a bit of this, or a bit of that? (Misses)
A bit of what you like does you no harm, you know that
The perpetual steady of the passing beat
A dark river of people
In transience and in it's permanence
But, when the streetlamp fills the gutter gold
So many items bought and sold

So step for step and both light on our
We'll travel many dim silent street (together)

Once round Arnold Circus, and up through Lane
Past the of shadows, and once back round again
Arm in arm, with an air
To the people stare
Out of the windows
we are living like kings
And these days will forever

Cos from Africa, China and the archipelago of Malay
Jump ship and penniless into Shadwells Tiger Bay
The Welsh and wagtails, mothers of midnight
The music hall carousel out into bonfire light
Sending half crazed shadows, giants up the brick wall
Of Mr beer factory, waving, bottles ten feet tall

one calls it Spitalfields, Whitechapel, Tower Hamlets
Or Banglatown. all dancing in the moonlight, we're all
On ground.

Oh, I'm just walking down to, I'm floating down through
you come with me, to the Liberty of Norton Folgate
But wait!
What's
Dan
And the golem

Purposefully walking nowhere, oh I'm happy just about
(Have a banana)
On a Sunday afternoon, the stallholders all and shout
To no-one in
Avoiding people you know, you're basking in you're own company
The technicolour world's going by, but the lead in your own movie

Cos in the Liberty of Norton
wild and free, in your second hand coat,
Happy to float
In this little of liberty
A of everything you see

They're left and right
Trying to you stuff you don't need or want
And a chap takes your hand
And you in his Uncles restaurant
(ee-yar, ee-yar, ee-yar)

There's a Chinese man trying hard to flog you DVDs
You know? You've seen the film, it's black and white, it's got no
And a man's head up and down
Right across widescreen TV
(Only a fiver)
('Ow much?)
(Alright, two for quid)
(Ee-yar, ee-yar, look, I'm it away)
(Givin' it away!)

Cos in the Liberty of Norton
Walking and free, in your second hand coat,
just to float
In this little piece of
You're a of everything you see

the sturdy old fellows, pickpockets, dandy's, extortioners
And night wanderers, the feeble, the ghastly, whom death
Had placed a very hand,
in shreds and patches,
Reeling inarticulate full of noisy and inordinate
That jars discordantly the ear
And gives an aching sensation to both pair of
(Noisy and vivacity)

ahhhhhh ahhhhh etc etc

In the was a fear of the immigrant
In the beginning was a of the immigrant
He's made his way to the dark riverside

In the beginning was a of the immigrant
In the beginning was a fear of the
He's made his home there down by the dark

Ohhhh ahhhhhh etc etc

He made his home there by the riverside
They made homes there down by the riverside
The sprang up from the dark river Thames

They made home there down by the riverside
made their homes there down by the riverside
The city up from the dark mud of the Thames
say it again

(Ha ha ha, right)

in the Liberty of Norton Folgate
Walking wild and
And in second hand coat
Happy to float
In little taste of liberty
Cos a part of everything you see
Yes, you're a part of you see

With a bit of this
And a bit of that
A bit of what you like does you no harm
And you that

Ohhhh ahhhhh etc etc (repeat to end)
