1
Early in the morning at 1am
As London Town was sleeping
A tiny spark lit the dark
And the fire it came a-creeping
Thomas woke to thick black smoke
He’d never seen such a thing
They lay the blame on Pudding Lane
And the baker to the King, he -

Chorus
Set it on fire – burn it all down
Is that the end of London Town?
It’s gone up in flames like kindling sticks
September 1666

2
At the Star Inn on Fish Street Hill
The Landlord stood a-weeping
As the wind it blew, the sparks they flew
And the flames they started leaping
The streets were so thin they couldn’t do a thing
To stop that fire from spreading
For three more days it blazed and blazed
It was the nightmare they’d been dreading

Middle 8
It’s raining it’s pouring
On poor old London Town
I wish it was raining and pouring on poor old London Town (rpt_)
Bring in CH: (sing over top in two part harmony)
Set it on fire – burn it all down
Is that the end of London Town? (rpt_)
