They said release 'remote control' |
|
But we didn't want it on the label |
|
They said, 'fly to amsterdam' |
|
The people laughed but the press went mad |
|
Ooh ooh ooh someone's really smart |
|
Ooh ooh ooh complete control, that's a laugh |
|
On the last tour my mates couldn't get in |
|
I'd open up the back door but they'd get run out again |
|
At every hotel we was met by the law |
|
Come for the party - come to make sure! |
|
Ooh ooh ooh have we done something wrong? |
|
Ooh ooh ooh complete control, even over this song |
|
They said we'd be artistically free |
|
When we signed that bit of paper |
|
They meant let's make a lotsa mon-ee |
|
An' worry about it later |
|
Ooh ooh ooh i'll never understand |
|
Ooh ooh ooh complete control - lemme see your other hand! |
|
All over the news spread fast |
|
They're dirty, they're filthy |
|
They ain't gonna last! |
|
This is joe public speaking |
|
I'm controlled in the body, controlled in the mind |
|
Total |
|
C-o-n control - that means you! |
