The Streets of London

Fill in the gaps

1 Have you seen the _____________ man
2 In the closed-down market
3 Kicking up the paper,
4 In his ____________ out shoes?
5 In his eyes you see no pride
6 Hands held loosely at his __________
7 Yesterday's ______________ telling yesterday's news

CHORUS

Put the lines in the correct order

8 Let me take you by the hand and lead you through the streets of London
9 and say for you that the sun don't shine?
10 I'll show you something to make you change your mind.
11 So how can you tell me you're lonely,

Correct the wrong words

12 Have you seen the cold girl
13 Who walks the streets of London
14 Dirt in her hair and her clothes in bags?
15 She's no time for walking,
16 She just keeps right on talking
17 Carrying her clothes in two plastic bags.

CHORUS

Underline the words you don’t hear

18 In the all night old cafe
19 At a quarter past eleven,
20 The same old man is sitting there on his own
21 Looking at the world outside
22 Over the rim of his dirty tea-cup,
23 Each cup of tea lasts an hour
24 Then he wanders home alone

CHORUS

Correct the wrong words

And have you seen the good man
Outside the seaman's mission
Memory falling with
The metal ribbons that he wears.
In our awful city,
The rain drops a little pity
For one more abandoned hero
And a friend that doesn't care
