[00:09.47]I am a London apprentice, for I never will learn a trade
[00:13.77]The best that I could hope for, is from mistakes I've made
[00:18.46]A man who never made any, he never meant nothing at all
[00:23.09]So Christopher Wren had to start again, when he built St. Pauls
[00:30.18]I am a London apprentice, for I never will learn her ways
[00:34.53]When I walk the streets of London, I am constantly amazed
[00:38.87]How a road I never was on before, leads to one and all
[00:43.71]As any cabbie will tell you, that's how all knowledge grows
[00:50.89]I am a London apprentice, and I love the muddy Thames
[00:55.38]Pushing his way through the city, just to come back again
[00:59.75]Through plague and conflagration, and when the bombers came
[01:04.43]A symbol of a nation, St. Paul amongst the flames
[01:32.38]I am a London Apprentice and I'll accept the status quo
[01:36.82]But a cockney must be born, within the silent spells of beau
[01:41.31]And London's been a refuge, by accident or plan
[01:45.85]So ask me who's a Londoner, I'll answer every man
[01:52.68]I am a London apprentice, but one thing I know for sure
[01:57.12]I'll tell you very bluntly with these words you can't ignore
[02:01.70]Remember Doctor Johnson, whose wit cut like a knife
[02:06.19]When a man is tired of London, a man is tired of life
[02:34.14]I am a London apprentice, for I never will learn a trade
[02:38.38]The best that I could hope for, is from mistakes I've made
[02:42.87]A man who never made any, he never meant nothing at all
[02:47.51]So Christopher Wren had to start again, when he built St. Pauls
