Songs Mentioning London Underground Stations In Their Lyrics

[jeffa]

Discussion in the pub tonight. Must actually refer to the underground station, so Angel Eyes doesn't count because it's not referring to the Angel underground station. Victoria by The Kinks and Kings Cross by Pet Shop Boys are out too because the station is in the title. E.g.

Ian Dury and the Blockheads - What a Waste (Fulham Broadway)
Leyton Buzzards - Saturday Night beneath the Plastic Palm Trees (Seven Sisters)
Marillion - Kayleigh (Belsize Park)

[ChillDoubt]

Pet Shop Boys - Kings Cross
It was rather eerie because the lyrics mention "dead and wounded on either side, you know it's only a matter of time".
The song was recorded well before the disaster.
