[Verse 1]
F London by Jetpack C G7 It can be done F What we spend on fuel C G7 We'll make on film F From the ICA C G7 To Abbey Road in seconds F On high rooftops C G7 We'll dance the Twist
[Chorus]
F C F G I spent August in London when F C G The New Romantics reigned F C F G And though I was oblivious then F C G My love has never waned F C F G My roots are New Romantic as F C G Some critics have complained
[Verse 2]
F London by Jetpack C G7 My verse novel F When teenagers fly C G7 They change the sky F C It's not the going up G7 It's not the coming down F It's the zooming 'round C G7 The speed, the sex
[Chorus]
F C F G When I am monarch of the world F C G Weighed down by matters weighty F C F I'll live in London once more G F C G And decree it's 1980 F C F G That all may dress as Pierrots F C G And pirates, like their king F C F And all will have jetpacks G F C G From club to club we'll go zooming
[Outro]
F At the club with no name C G7 We'll dance again F Vivienne Westwood C G7 Will be my queen F There will be no army C G7 Only the Blitz F C It's not the going up G7 It's not the coming down F London by Jetpack C N.C. I'll write you yet
