Seeking fame and fortune
We walk the streets of London
Looking for the crossroads everywhere
Holed up in squats in teater bars
There's a slasher on the Holloway boulevard
Screaming: "Monkey, monkey, mon-key everywhere"
Like tin soldiers responding to the call
To Camden we will crawl
One and all
Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord
By icons we were lured
One and all
Seeking fame and fortune
All they say's: ?come on then, I'll meet you in the shadows by Rochester square?
The deal was done, the trade was rough
Dublin's down for a dubble bluff
Dipp your quill in your bleeding heart
Sign there and there and there
Like tin soldiers responding to the call
To Camden we will crawl
One and all
Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord
By icons we were lured
One and all
Oh they were as boys, tell me what then did they know
What was it they learned and where did they go
Now listen to the voice of the city morning air
If you're looking for something that's never been there
If you're seeking fame and fortune
Walking the streets of London
Looking for the crossroads everywhere
Hold on to your dreams, however bleak it seems
The world they may not listen, but the devil may care
Like tin soldiers responding to the call
To Camden we will crawl
One and all
Oh down to Trash and Lordy Lord
By icons we were lured
One and all
The Libertines are an English indie rock band formed in London in 1997. The original lineup consisted of Pete Doherty (vocals, guitar), Carl Barat (guitar, vocals), John Hassall (bass) and Gary Powell (drums). The band achieved success with their self-titled debut album in 2002, characterized by an energetic sound that blended garage rock, punk revival and pop melodies. Among their most notable songs are "Time for Heroes", "Can't Stand Me Now" and "Don't Look Back into the Sun". After a series of internal and personal problems, including those related to Doherty's alcoholism and drug use, The Libertines disbanded in 2005. In 2010, the band announced a reunion with the release of the album "Anthems for Doomed Youth", followed by a world tour. In 2014 they released their third studio album, "The Libertines". The band is considered one of the most influential in the British indie rock movement of the 2000s.
