The Lyrics
I'm sure of the result
of a plan, to improve what shouldn't be touched
and i've paid for, the parking space that is quite near
driving?, well in this town your fate is sealed
I can't put up with London town
I can't put up with London town
ply through the traffic, one-ways confuse me
is this map read, the way it should be?
now I've slammed on the brakes, my exit appears
I can't turn right there, and the car park was near
I can't put up with London town
I can't put up with London town
the bikes, and the trains
the bus and the tube
all seem to stop me
from reaching you
I can't put up with London town
I can't put up with London town
of a plan, to improve what shouldn't be touched
and i've paid for, the parking space that is quite near
driving?, well in this town your fate is sealed
I can't put up with London town
I can't put up with London town
ply through the traffic, one-ways confuse me
is this map read, the way it should be?
now I've slammed on the brakes, my exit appears
I can't turn right there, and the car park was near
I can't put up with London town
I can't put up with London town
the bikes, and the trains
the bus and the tube
all seem to stop me
from reaching you
I can't put up with London town
I can't put up with London town

Love it! Elvis Costello just so happens to be my favorite musical artist of all time!
