Hey there, mr. Chaplin,
You may think I'm rather small.
'Cause the posh papers are falling at your feet.
So, go ahead and snub me
And don't return my call.
And build your house on top of easy street.

But, what you gonna do when it all falls down

The world's bound to love him
When they see the little tramp.

If I left london tomorrow,
Would I find gold in the west?
Would I find fame in the flickers
Or a second-hand life there at best?
And if I left london tomorrow,
Would I succeed or just fail?
For here in my hand is a world that's unseen,
With a new kind of f

Mum, they stop him on the street,
And they have him sign his name.
And then they take his picture,
So the moment can remain.

You've got a great big house
On top of easy street.
You've got a million quid,

To see my face upon the screen.

And they all would call my name.
And I lived for those moments.
Now the tide has turned,
And all the glory's slipped away.
