Lyrics and translation

Original

Run down estates, that's what we been through.
No dogs or board games, that's what we been through. Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we been through.
Right here on the maze, that's what we been through.
Run down estates, that's what we been through. No dogs or board games, that's what we been through.
Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we been through.
Right here on the maze, that's what we been through. Run down estates, that's what we been through.
No dogs or board games, that's what we been through.
Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we been through. Right here on the maze, that's what we been through. I smell that
London's burning. I'll never know for certain.
Can you tell if London's burning? When you see the smoke through your curtains.
I smell that London's burning. I'll never know for certain.
Can you tell if London's burning? When you see the smoke through your curtains.
Run down estates, that's what we been through. No dogs or board games, that's what we been through.
Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we been through.
Right here on the maze, that's what we been through. Run down estates, that's what we been through.
No dogs or board games, that's what we been through.
Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we been through. Right here on the maze, that's what we been through. I smell that
London's burning. I'll never know for certain.
Can you tell if London's burning? When you see the smoke through your curtains.
I smell that London's burning. I'll never know for certain.
Can you tell if London's burning? When you see the smoke through your curtains.
-Yo, ay. London, the home of the greats. -Yeah.
The homes can live by the buck and them K's. London, the birth of the pow.
Home of the gunners. Shoot as a loose, the birth of the wow. Birth of the now.
Birth of the slang. You can get parred, you can get loud.
You're safer in houses when you're in the moshie and you don't know none of the crowd.
-Hey. -London, you're just one of the crowd.
Wherever you go in the world, if you know you're from London, you know that you're setting it live.
And if you ain't from here and you're disrespecting, you know argwah, and you're looking to ride. Oi, oi, I'm telling you now.
Man will get aggy -for running your mouth.
-Run down estates, that's what we been -through. -Oi, oi, just settle it down.
No dogs or board games, that's what we been through.
-Oi, oi, just settle your crowd.
-Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we -been through. -Oi, oi, just settle it down.
Right here on the maze, that's what we been through.
-Oi, oi, just settle your crowd.
-Run down estates, that's what we been -through. -Oi, oi, just settle it down.
No dogs or board games, that's what we been through.
-Oi, oi, just settle your crowd.
-Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we -been through. -Oi, oi, just settle it down.
Right here on the maze, that's what we been through.
Run down estates, that's what we been through. No dogs or board games, that's what we been through.
Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we been through.
Right here on the maze, that's what we been through. Run down estates, that's what we been through.
No dogs or board games, that's what we been through.
Had to hide from the jakes, that's what we been through.
Right here on the maze, that's what we been through.
