King of Birds by Karine Polwart Here is my interpretation.
Verse 1: In the Great Fire of London of 1666, Old St Paul's was gutted
Verse 2: The cathedral survived the Blitz although struck by bombs on 10 October 1940 and 17 April 1941.
Bridge: Saint Paul's surrounded by the City's financial district
Verse 3: In October 2011 an anti-capitalism Occupy London encampment was established in front of the cathedral
