It was just a legend that the counting house was here That's what we told the protesters as the building was cleared And I didn't tell a person, as we hauled away the trash That I saw a worn down sign beneath the rubble dust and ash And if hadn't known better, I'd've thought it used to say "Marley and scrooge" before it faded away We can charge more ren on new flats than an old Victorian block So we hauled away the cobblestones where Ebenezer walked Kept up with the job, there was plenty left to do London's full of old things to replace with something new And so street by street I watched the old brick buildings fall Making way for car parks, concrete flats and shopping malls But late in the evenings through the constant rain I swore that I could hear the sound of someone rattling chains And meanwhile outside, I heard distant voices talk But there was no one to be seen out where Ebenezer walked Finally one night I just couldn't take it anymore And ran outside not looking at the knocker on the door There were ghosts in every alley, holding chains for me to see Marley looked just like his picture, said now, come with me And the lights in all the windows were like smears against the fog As he took me through the city where Ebenezer walked On the wings of the wind he flew me through the town Ghosts flew by beneath us, til finally we touched down In a newly empty neighborhood where we'd just cleared out a space And I begged him, "tell me, spirit, who haunts this lonely place?" I looked down at my hand and saw that I could see right through As the chains appeared he said "we've saved this one for you" What becomes of ghosts who have nowhere left to haunt ? We're invisible beside you where Ebenezer walked
