Clash - Magnificent Seven Lyrics
Ring! Ring! It's 7:00 amMove y'self to go againCold water in the faceBrings you back to this awful placeKnuckle merchants and you bankers, tooMust get up an' learn those rulesWeather man and the crazy chiefOne says sun and one says sleetAM, the FM the PM tooChurning out that boogalooGets you up and gets you outBut how long can you keep it up?Gimme Honda, Gimme SonySo cheap and real phonyHong Kong dollars and Indian centsEnglish pounds and Eskimo penceYou lot! What?Don't stop! Give it all you got!You lot! What?Don't stop! Yeah!Working for a rise, better my stationTake my baby to sophisticationShe's seen the ads, she thinks it's niceBetter work hard - I seen the priceNever mind that it's time for the busWe got to work - an' you're one of usClocks go slow in a place of workMinutes drag and the hours jerk"When can I tell 'em wot I do?In a second, maaan...oright Chuck!"Wave bub-bub-bub-bye to the bossIt's our profit, it's his lossBut anyway lunch bells ringTake one hour and do your thanng!Cheeesboiger!What do we have for entertainment?Cops kickin' Gypsies on the pavementNow the news - snap to attention!The lunar landing of the dentist conventionItalian mobster shoots a lobsterSeafood restaurant gets out of handA car in the fridgeOr a fridge in the car?Like cowboys do in TV landYou lot! What? Don't stop. Huh?So get back to work an' sweat some moreThe sun will sink an' we'll get out the doorIt's no good for man to work in cagesHits the town, he drinks his wagesYou're frettin', you're sweatin'But did you notice you ain't gettin'?Don't you ever stop long enough to start?To take your car outta that gearDon't you ever stop long enough to start?To get your car outta that gearKarlo Marx and Friedrich EngelsCame to the checkout at the 7-11Marx was skint but he had senseEngels lent him the necessary penceWhat have we got? Yeh-o, magnificence!!Luther King and Mahatma GandhiWent to the park to check on the gameBut they was murdered by the other teamWho went on to wing 50-nilYou can be true, you can be falseYou be given the same rewardSocrates and Milhous NixonBoth went the same way - through the kitchenPlato the Greek or Rin Tin TinWho's more famous to the billion millions?News Flash: Vacuum Cleaner Sucks Up BudgieOooohh...bub-byeMagnificence!!*****ing long, innit
