Luyện nghe bài hát Overture

This is the of the Liberty Of Norton Folgate

Old Jack Norris, the shrimp and the cadging ramble...

A little bit of this, would you a bit of that

But in weather like this, you should wear a coat, a warm hat
A needle and thread the stitches of time
Battling versus Jackie Burk
Bobbing and weaving, an line

So for step and both light on our feet
travel many along dim silent street

Would you a bit of this, or a little bit of that? (Misses)
A little bit of what you does you no harm, you know that
The perpetual steady of the passing beat
A continual dark of people
In it's and in it's permanence
But, the streetlamp fills the gutter with gold
So priceless items bought and sold

So step for step and both on our feet
travel many along dim silent street (together)

Once round Circus, and up through Petticoat Lane
Past the well of shadows, and once round again
Arm in arm, an abstracted air
To where the people
Out of the upstairs
Because we are like kings
And days will last forever

Cos sailors from Africa, China and the archipelago of
Jump ship ragged and penniless into Shadwells Bay
The Welsh and wagtails, mothers of midnight
The music hall carousel enspilling out into light
Sending half crazed shadows, giants dancing up the brick
Of Mr Trumans beer factory, waving, bottles ten tall

Whether one calls it Spitalfields, Whitechapel, Hamlets
Or Banglatown. We're all in the moonlight, we're all
On ground.

Oh, I'm just walking down to, I'm just down through
Won't you come me, to the Liberty of Norton Folgate
But wait!
What's
Dan
And the golem

Purposefully walking nowhere, oh I'm happy just about
(Have a banana)
On a afternoon, the stallholders all call and shout
To no-one in
Avoiding people you know, just basking in you're own company
The technicolour world's going by, but you're the lead in own movie

Cos in the Liberty of Norton
Walking wild and free, in second hand coat,
Happy just to
In little taste of liberty
A of everything you see

They're coming left and
Trying to flog you stuff you need or want
And a smiling chap your hand
And you in his Uncles restaurant
(ee-yar, ee-yar, ee-yar)

There's a Chinese man trying hard to flog you DVDs
You know? You've seen the film, it's and white, it's got no sound
And a man's head pops up and
Right across your TV
(Only a fiver)
('Ow much?)
(Alright, two for quid)
(Ee-yar, ee-yar, look, I'm it away)
(Givin' it away!)

Cos in the Liberty of Folgate
Walking wild and free, in your second coat,
Happy just to
In this piece of liberty
You're a part of you see

There's the sturdy old fellows, pickpockets, dandy's,
And night wanderers, the feeble, the ghastly, upon whom
Had placed a very hand,
in shreds and patches,
Reeling full of noisy and inordinate vivacity
That jars discordantly the ear
And gives an aching sensation to both of eyeballs
(Noisy and vivacity)

ahhhhhh ahhhhh etc etc

In the was a fear of the immigrant
In the beginning was a of the immigrant
He's made his way down to the dark

In the beginning was a fear of the
In the beginning was a fear of the
made his home there down by the dark riverside

Ohhhh ahhhhh etc etc

He his home there down by the riverside
They their homes there down by the riverside
The city up from the dark river Thames

They made home there down by the riverside
They made their homes down by the riverside
The city sprang up from the dark mud of the
I'll say it

(Ha ha ha, right)

'Cos in the Liberty of Norton
Walking wild and
And in your second hand
just to float
In little taste of liberty
Cos you're a of everything you see
Yes, you're a part of you see

With a bit of this
And a bit of that
A bit of what you like does you no harm
And you that

Ohhhh ahhhhhh etc etc (repeat to end)
