"Funky London Childhood" lyrics - MARC BOLAN

Ancient buildings clothed in age
The foggy realms of Dicken's page
School at four through knowledge door.

It all makes up the funky London childhood
It all makes up the funky London childhood today.

Moving through the streams of life
Cutting deep with your London knife
City boys, now men from school.

It all makes up the funky London childhood
It all makes up the funky London childhood today.

In and out of work is bad
Not enough of learning makes you sad
The gilded cage we call '75
Some is fabulous, some is jive.

But it all makes up the funky London childhood
But it all makes up the funky London childhood today.

It all makes up the funky London childhood
It all makes up the funky London childhood today.
