Lyrics That's Entertainment - The Jam

That's Entertainment

A police car and a screaming siren —
A pnuematic drill and ripped up concrete —
A baby wailing and stray dog howling —
The screech of brakes and lamplights blinking —
That’s entertainment
That’s entertainment
A smash of glass and the rumble of boots —
An electric train and a ripped up 'phone booth —
Paint spattered walls and the cry of a tomcat —
Lights going out and a kick in the balls —
I say that’s entertainment
That’s entertainment
Days of speed and slow time Mondays —
Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday —
Watching the news and not eating your tea —
A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls —
I say that’s entertainment
That’s entertainment
Waking up at 6 a.m. on a cool warm morning —
Opening the windows and breathing in petrol —
An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard —
Watching the tele and thinking about your holidays —
That’s entertainment
That’s entertainment
Waking up from bad dreams and smoking cigarettes —
Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume —
A hot summers' day and sticky black tarmac —
Feeding ducks in the park and wishing you were faraway —
That’s entertainment
That’s entertainment
Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight —
Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude —
Getting a cab and travelling on buses —
Reading the grafitti about slashed seat affairs —
That’s entertainment
