From the Thames, I snake along the black Serpent taking the Tube, London’s rack On the Northern Line, the night lays ahead I remember the town’s name at the top of my head Camden is like a classy underground broad Come along before you’re again on the road I was a chick when I first came to Camden Town At eighteen, now a woman I’m downtown From gothic ***** clothing to Hare Krishna Camden is kind of like Gingsberg’s California It’s shabby and mystical, silly and lyrical When I’m there please don’t give me a call Camden is like a drunk crow looking for Poe In between nails and leathers that glow You would grab a dude and he’ll be beneath Jack the Ripper roaming at Hampstead Heath My New England, Camden was and is Not because of bars and hashish drags Camden possesses underneath her rags The sweet scent of a quirky release Deliciously deviant divine Line up at the looming line The black Northern Line inked All throughout London, linked… December 20, 2015 9:26 pm London, Victoria
