The lyrics (using the term loosely) make several references to nursery rhymes. The "London Bridge" of the nursery rhyme is therefore what she is referring to.

Yes, that is true, "London Bridge" refers to the nursery rhyme "London bridge is falling down."
However, I think that in Fergie's song, "London Bridge" has sexual connotations, which are not appropriate for this site.

When she was asked what the lyrics referred to, Fergie said, "That's the magic question. I'm not going to be specific with it because it can have several meanings. People should use their imagination."
