Lyrics
I’ve been a London cabbie and worked on the Stena line I drove a coach through Europe, but I couldn’t read the signs And then one day, I joined the dudes, Who drive the trains down on the tube For 40 grand, cash in hand, and now life is divine Health and Safety warned us of the dangers on the train, If the train derails or the signal fails, then we'll all die in pain But the Underground's where my heart lies I'm waiting for my next pay rise Or we will strike for safety once again Underground we prosper ‘cos we're all on 40 grand For sitting in a train that we can drive with just one hand But you’ll have to ride your bike, when we all go on strike If TFL don’t pay what we demand From Hillingdon to Ickenham and on to Sudbury Town You can get your wheelchair down there, ‘Cos there’s no steps to go down Wake me up at East Finchley or I’ll end up in Bermondsey And won’t get home in time to watch Countdown Underground we prosper ‘cos we're all on 40 grand For sitting in a train that we can drive with just one hand But you’ll have to ride your bike, when we all go on strike If TFL don’t pay what we demand Oh, underground we prosper, we all live in Belsize Park And thanks to your Oyster cards, we all drive Jaguars I’ll fly through Wembley Central With my lunchbox on the handle And I’ll be home well before it’s dark
