Ghetto Defendant — текст песни (The Clash)





CLASH LYRICS

/ ALLEN GINSBERG LYRICS

/ DO THE WORM ON THE ACCROPOLIS
/ SLAMDANCE THE COSMOPOLIS
/ ENLIGHTEN THE POPULACE

HUNGRY DARKNESS OF LIVING
WHO WILL THIRST IN THE PIT?
/ HOOKED IN METROPOLIS
SHE SPENT A LIFETIME DECIDING
HOW TO RUN FROM IT
/ ADDICTS OF METROPOLIS
ONCE FATE HAD A WITNESS
AND THE YEARS SEEMED LIKE FRIENDS
/ GIRLFRIENDS
HER BABIES CAN DREAM
BUT DREAMS BEGIN LIKE THE END
/ SHOT INTO ETERNITY
/ METHADONE KITTY
/ IRON SERENITY

GHETTO DEFENDANT
IT IS HEROIN PITY
NOT TEAR GAS NOR BATON CHARGE
THAT STOPS YOU TAKING THE CITY

/ STRUNG OUT COMMITTEE
WALLED OUT OF THE CITY
CLUBBED DOWN FROM UPTOWN
SPRAYED PEST FROM THE NEST
RUN OUT TO BARRIO TOWN
/THE GUARDS ARE ITCHY
FORCED TO WATCH AT THE FEAST
THEN SWEEP UP THE NIGHT
FLIPPED PIECES OF COIN
/ BROKEN BOTTLES
EXCHANGED FOR BIRTHRIGHT
/ GRAFTED IN A JIFFY

/ STRUNG OUT COMMITTEE
/ SITTING PRETTY
/ GRAPHED IN A JIFFY
/ NO PITY, PRETTY

THE GHETTO PRINCE OF GUTTER POETS
WAS BOUNCED OUT OF THE ROOM
/ JEAN ARTHUR RIMBAUD
BY THE BODYGUARDS OF GREED
FOR DISTURBING THE TOMB
/ 1873
HIS WORDS LIKE FLAMETHROWERS
/ PARIS COMMUNE
BURNT THE GHETTOS IN THEIR CHESTS
HIS FACE WAS PAINTED WHITER
AND HE WAS LAID TO REST
/ DIED IN MARSEILLE
/ BURIED IN CHARLEVILLE
/ SHUT UP

SOAP FLOODS OIL IN WATER
ALL CHURN IN THE WAKE
ON THE GREAT SHIP OF PROGRESS
THE CREW CAN`T FIND THE BRAKE
KLAXONS ARE BLARING
THE ADMIRAL SNORES COMMAND
SUBMARINES BOIL IN OCEANS
WHILE THE ARMIES FIGHT WITH SUNS
