Lyrics:

[Intro] [Acoustic Guitar Melody]
Cobblestone streets and a sky of grey
Another dawn breaks on a weary day
[London Fog]

[Verse 1] [Male Vocals, Melancholy Tone]
In the heart of the city, where shadows reside
We tramps of London, with nowhere to hide
From the chill in the air, to the ache in our soul
Another day dawning, takes its weary toll.

[Chorus] [Folk Harmony, Upbeat but wistful]
Oh, tea and two slices, that's all we can find
A meager existence, leaving hope behind
Wandering through alleys, where dreams turn to dust
In the grip of the thirties, we place all our trust.

[Verse 2] [Female Vocals, Softer, Reflective]
The Thames flows beside us, a silent, cold stream
Reflecting the faces, lost in a dream
Of warmth and of comfort, a life left behind
For the struggle of survival, for peace of mind.

[Chorus] [Folk Harmony, Stronger]
Oh, tea and two slices, that's all we can find
A meager existence, leaving hope behind
Wandering through alleys, where dreams turn to dust
In the grip of the thirties, we place all our trust.

[Bridge] [Slightly faster tempo, building tension]
The papers they tell us of fortunes untold
But down on the pavements, we shiver from cold
The promise of progress, a faraway sound
While hunger's our master, on hallowed ground.

[Chorus] [Folk Harmony, Full and Resonant]
Oh, tea and two slices, that's all we can find
A meager existence, leaving hope behind
Wandering through alleys, where dreams turn to dust
In the grip of the thirties, we place all our trust.

[Outro] [Fade out with acoustic guitar and distant voices]
Tea and two slices... tea and two slices...
Lost in the city... just tea and two slices...
[Fading Echo]
