Introduction
A beautiful theme this week being "Comedy". we decided to go with Lilly Allen who has a great lyrical insight and touch of comedy to her songs.

This is a song about London where some of us are from and reminds us of both London being amazing and also the little bit of rough around the edges.

Lyrics

LDN

Riding through the city on my bike all day
'Cause the filth took away my licence
It doesn't get me down and I feel okay
'Cause the sights that I'm seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper, and he's sittin' with a slapper
Then I see it's a pimp and his crack whore

You might laugh, you might frown
Walkin' round London town

Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it's all lies

There was a little old lady, who was walkin' down the road
She was struggling with bags from Tesco
There were people from the city having lunch in the park
I believe that it's called al fresco
Then a kid came along to offer a hand
But before she had time to accept it
Hits her over the head, doesn't care if she's dead
'Cause he's got all her jewelry and wallet
You might laugh, you might frown
Walkin' round London town

Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
Sun is in the sky, oh why, oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else?
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
You can see it's all lies

All 3 of you are great, this time you 2 made magic as always; I really like this format of presentation, it is unique for the Hive Open Mic and for any music community, besides you have a great sense of humor and you transmit the joy of playing together in a band 👍😉!!!

I didn't know this song by Lilly, you guys are amazing, you are tremendous musicians and hey I love that guitar, you need to have it in the color of mine to match the image of the band, I could be the 4th member 😁!!!!
