The Great Rock 'N' Roll Swindle |
People said we couldn’t play |
The called us foul-mothed yobs |
But the only notes that really count |
Are the ones that come in wads |
They all drowned when the air turned blue |
'Cos we didn’t give a toss |
Filthy lucre, ain’t nothing new |
But we all get cash from the chaos |
The time is right to do it now |
The greatest rock’n’roll swindle |
The time is right to do it now |
E.M.I. |
said you’re out of hand |
And they gave us the boot |
But they couldn’t sack us, just like that |
Without giving us the loot |
Thank you kindly A &M |
They said we were out of bounds |
But that ain’t bad for two weeks work |
And 75,000 pounds |
The time is right to do it now |
The greatest rock’n’roll swindle |
The time is right to do it now |
The time is right to do it now |
The greatest rock’n’roll swindle |
The time is right to do it now |
I just wanna play with my hand |
Are you good enough for me |
Hiya boys I’m the choosen one |
Can’t you fucking see |
I’m a jealous god and I want everything |
And I love you with a knife |
I’ll take you, if you’re ready for me |
And I’ll give you my life |
The time is right to do it now |
The greatest rock’n’roll swindle |
The time is right to do it now |
The time is right for Nickey’s Special |
The greatest rock’n’roll star |
The time is right for me, now! |
