lyrics

(just listen)

He flew from London and he stood in my one good corner
He talked about facilities and treated rooms and Dubai
And I said nothing for a while and then I said just listen
And I let ninety seconds of my city come through the gap

Just listen (just listen)
That's all I said, just listen
Ninety seconds, just listen
Just listen

Just listen, just listen, just listen, just listen
There is a generator and a wedding and a road
Just listen, just listen, just listen, just listen
You cannot buy that in a room with four walls

He stayed until the call to prayer came over the top of it.
Then he said "okay." Then he said "you're right." Then he left.
He sends me messages sometimes. He has never mentioned Dubai again.
(DRUMS SLAM BACK)

Just listen, just listen, just listen, just listen
There is a generator and a wedding and a road
Just listen, just listen, just listen, just listen
You cannot buy that in a room with four walls
