|
(the clash) |
|
Tonight they're closing up the world |
|
N' sweeping smoke from cigarettes |
|
And what is that funk multi-national |
|
Anthem rocking from a thousand |
|
King kong cassette decks |
|
Then a shyboy from missouri |
|
Boots blown off in a '60s war |
|
Riding aluminium crutches |
|
Now he knows the welfare kindness n' |
|
Agent orange color blindness |
|
As we works from door to door |
|
The violence in the carpets |
|
The mirror of his wife |
|
Drives the slum-bum dweller |
|
To grind his hunting knife |
|
In homesteads of cigar box-radios |
|
Hive like bees |
|
The body in the ice |
|
Box has no date for freeeeeze |
|
Chorus |
|
In a car jam |
|
Selling is what selling sells |
|
But only saints of the 7 avenues can sell |
|
The hells |
|
Fanning the drug afflicted leperizing acne |
|
Once inisde the executive |
|
He never leaves his home |
|
Gorillas drag their victiims |
|
Hyenas try to sue |
|
Snakes find grass in concrete |
|
There is no city zoo by |
|
Ventilation units where towers |
|
Meet the streets |
|
The ragged stand in bags |
|
Soaking heat up through their feet |
|
This was the donly kindness |
|
And it was accidental too |
|
Chorus |
|
Now shaking single engined planes |
|
Traffik-king stereos from cuba |
|
Buzzed the holy zealot mass |
|
And drowned out missa luba |
|
And drowned out missa luba |
|
I thought i saw lauren bacall |
|
I thought i saw lauren bacall |
|
I swear |
|
Hey fellas |
|
Lauren bacall |
|
In a car jam |
|
Yeah i don't believe it |
|
In a car jam |
|
Ah yeah positively absolutely |
|
Chorus |
