LYRICS:
From London's suburbs it's off to work
Gridlock traffic drives you beserk
Trains and autobahn old and slow
There's an alternative way to go
Let's make a journey on the Croydon Tramlink
The future's plastic, the future's electric
It's like riding in a giant Scalextric
It's the only way to go
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
Let's got to Beckenham-nam-nam
to Mitcham-ham-ham
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
Quiet, efficient and safe and green
Ride the future a town planner's dream
Trees and concrete, let's go to town
Visit the shops that were not burnt down
Wondering where all the money's gone?
Make two journeys and pay for one
Providing they're within 70 minutes on a prepaid Oystercard
It's the only way to go
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
Let's got to Beckenham-nam-nam
to Mitcham-ham-ham
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
From Elmers End to Merton Park, past Phipps Bridge
At Wandle Park IKEA, get a pink fridge
Let's go from Sandilands to Addington Village
It's so exciting there might be a spillage
Let's go from Wimbledon to Beckenham Junction
While we debate if we're in Surrey or London
See Civic gems like the Croydon Clock Tower
And the BRIT School which gave the world Dane Bowers
Travel in style to fabulous places
Watch out for the occasional racist
Every journey an adventure, and so
It's the only way to go
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
Let's got to Beckenham-nam-nam
to Mitcham-ham-ham
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
From London's suburbs it's off to work
Gridlock traffic drives you beserk
Trains and autobahn old and slow
There's an alternative way to go
Let's make a journey on the Croydon Tramlink
The future's plastic, the future's electric
It's like riding in a giant Scalextric
It's the only way to go
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
Let's got to Beckenham-nam-nam
to Mitcham-ham-ham
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
Quiet, efficient and safe and green
Ride the future a town planner's dream
Trees and concrete, let's go to town
Visit the shops that were not burnt down
Wondering where all the money's gone?
Make two journeys and pay for one
Providing they're within 70 minutes on a prepaid Oystercard
It's the only way to go
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
And it's fun, fun, fun
On the Croydon tram, tram, tram
