Today is Friday, the 11th of October 2019.
No Friday without city quiz, is it not?
"Bromford"
In Bromford by the sea, how long will you wait for me?
Let's ride the magic bus again
Or maybe take the midland train to
Bromford by the sea
A revolution's happening to me
Right here in Bromford by the sea
In Bromford by the sea, how long will you wait for me?
Let's ride the magic bus again
Or maybe take the midland train to
Bromford by the sea
A revolution's happening to me
Right here in Bromford by the sea
As I'm walkin' 'round the town
Singin' this new song I've found
My friend comes and breaks my flow
Says, "Hey man, now don't you know that
Bromford's got no sea
That's just some bad geography
This Bromford's got no bay
That's the one in the USA"
No, Bromford's got no sea
But somehow it feels good to me
Let's ride the magic bus again
Or maybe take the midland train to
Bromford proud and free
A revolution's happening to me
Right here in Bromford NOT by the sea
No Friday without city quiz, is it not?
"Bromford"
Are you feelin' like the underdog?
Like every day's stuck on repeat
Come and sing a different song
On the sunny side of Oxford Street
In Bromford by the sea, how long will you wait for me?
Let's ride the magic bus again
Or maybe take the midland train to
Bromford by the sea
A revolution's happening to me
Right here in Bromford by the sea
Girlfriends hug at the coffee shop
There's every type of person walking by
It's a perfect day full stop
There's even a smile on the traffic cop
In Bromford by the sea, how long will you wait for me?
Let's ride the magic bus again
Or maybe take the midland train to
Bromford by the sea
A revolution's happening to me
Right here in Bromford by the sea
I'm givin' all my love away
Fillin' up, I'm fillin' up
I'm givin' all my love away
Fillin' up, I'm fillin' up
I'm givin' all my love away
Fillin' up, right here in Bromford bay
As I'm walkin' 'round the town
Singin' this new song I've found
My friend comes and breaks my flow
Says, "Hey man, now don't you know that
Bromford's got no sea
That's just some bad geography
This Bromford's got no bay
That's the one in the USA"
No, Bromford's got no sea
But somehow it feels good to me
Let's ride the magic bus again
Or maybe take the midland train to
Bromford proud and free
A revolution's happening to me
Right here in Bromford NOT by the sea
