you take a short walk with me
We'll stroll down to the Seven Dials
And by the light of the waning moon
It really doesn't matter where I've been
I can only tell you what I've seen
And it may come now as some surprise
To see what's really going on in
Where the rookery's narrow alleys
And of the stranger with inquiring face
For each to catch the circling rays
It really don't matter what he's seen
I thought, can he really tell
And it will come out as no surprise
Make yourself warm, come inside
There's no slight intended,
An invitation to sit side by side with
The thief and the beggar, even the sly
Is no pretence, nothing to hide
He dwells on every single corner
Tries every winding street in vain
The overcrowded town goes
Ooh, make yourself warm, come inside
There's no slight intended,
An invitation to sit side by side
With a thief, a beggar, even a snipe
Make yourself warm, come inside
No pretense, nothing to hide
The fainter, the better, the jilted bride
Make yourself warm, come inside
No pretense, nothing to hide
Make yourself warm, come inside
Make yourself a warm and side
