Gallows
London Is the Reason
[Refrain]
We are the rats, and we run this town
We are the black plague bearing down
We have no fear, and we have no pity
We hate you, we hate this city

[Verse 1]
Every mistake you ever made
The bodies you thought would never need graves
They pave the gutters of London town
'Til the streets become a feeding ground

[Chorus]
London is the reason!
London is the reason!
London is the reason!

[Refrain]
We are the rats, and we run this town
We are the black plague bearing down
We have no fear, we have no pity
We hate you, we hate this city

[Verse 2]
The River Thames is running dry
The bodies have been piled high
All the corpses up on the shores
We'll drag 'em out, just like yours
[Chorus]
London is the reason!
London is the reason!
London is the reason!

[Refrain]
We are the rats, and we run this town
We are the black plague bearing down
We have no fear, we have no pity
We hate you, we hate this city

[Interlude]

[Breakdown]
London is the reason!
(When it burns down, we'll be tried for treason!)
London is the reason!
(When it burns down, we'll be tried for treason!)
London is the reason!
(When it burns down, we'll be tried for treason!)
London is the reason!
(When it burns down, we'll be tried for treason!)

[Outro]
Yeah!
