Great rock 'n' roll swindle lyrics

(Jones, Temple, Cook)

People said we couldn't play They called us foul-mouthed
But the only notes that really count
Are the ones that come in wads
They all drowned when the air turned blue
'Cos w didn't give a toss
Filthy lucre ain't nothing new
But we all get cash from chaos
The time is right to do it now
The greastes rock'n'roll swindle
The time is right to do it now

Silly thing lyrics

What you see, you can get
Nothing's free, nothing's said
Don't be fooled by the signs
Don't read in between the lines

What you're gonna say
What you're gonna do
Now you've missed out once again
But I thought you knew

Oh you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh you silly thing
You really gone and done it now

Trouble here, trouble there
People stop just to stare

C'mon everybody lyrics

(Capeheart, Cochran)

Well c'mon everybody and let's get together tonight
I got some money in my jeans
And I'm really gonna spend it right
Well I've been doing my homework all week long
Now to have some fifty and my folk are gone
Ooh c'mon everybody
Oh well my baby's number one
But I'm gonna dance with three or four
And the house will be shaking from bare feet
A-stamping on the floor

My way lyrics

(Revaux, Francois, Anka)

And now the end is near and so I face the final curtain
You cunt, I'm not a queer I'll state my case of which I'm certain
I've lived a life that's full and each and every highway
And yet, much more than this I did it my way
And yes, I've had a few but then again, to few to mention
But dig, what I have to feel I'll see it through with no devotion

(I'm Not Your) Stepping Stone lyrics

I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone

You're trying to make your mark in society
Using all the tricks that you used on me
You're reading all those high fashion magazines
The clothes you're wearin' girl
are causing public scenes

I said
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
I I I I I'm not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone
Not your stepping stone

Belsen Was A Gas lyrics

Spoken: Ok this time for real...
"Belsen Was A Gasser"

Belsen was a gas I heard the other day
In the open graves where all the jews lay
Life is fun and I wish you were here
They wrote on their postcards to those held dear

Oh dear. oh dear, oh dear....

Dentist search their teeth for gold
Frisk the jews for bank notes rolled
when they found out what they got
Line them up and shoot the whole lot

Friggin' In The Riggin' lyrics

It was on the Good Ship Venus
By Christ, ya shoulda seen us
The figurehead was a whore in bed
And the mast was a mammoth penis.

The captain of this lugger
He was a dirty bugger
He wasn't fit to shovel shit
From one place to another

Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
Friggin' in the riggin'
There was fuck all else to do

Captain's name was Morgan

I Wanna Be Me lyrics

turn the page and it's the scoop of the century
don't wanna be L7
i had enough of this
this is brainwash
and this is a clue
to the stars who fooled you
tell me why you can't explain
you're only looking for vinyl
yeah didn't they fool you
thy wanna be you

gimme world war three
we can live again
you didn't fool me
i fooled you
you wanna be me
yeah you wanna be me
you wanna be someone
ruin someone

Johnny B. Goode / Roadrunner lyrics

Paul (?): We'll play Johnny B. Goode; he'll sing Through My Eyes.
Other voice: (???)
Paul (?): Tell John. Tell him.
Johnny: What?
Paul (?): Tell him. (???)
Other Voice: They wanna play Johnny B. Goode while you sing Through my eyes.
Johnny: God! Awright, then.
Paul(?): Ready? Go!
Johnny:
If you could see... oh God, fuck off...

No One Is Innocent (The Biggest Blow) lyrics

God save the sex pistols they're a bunch of wholesome blokes
They just like wearing filthy clothes and swapping filthy jokes
God save television keep the programs pure
God save William Grundy from falling in manure

Ronnie Biggs was doing time until he done a bunk
Now he says he's seen the light and he sold his soul to punk

God save Martin Boorman and nazis on the run

You Need Hands lyrics

You need hands to hold someone you care for....
When you fear...nobody wants to know you
You need hands to brush away the tears....

When you hold the brand new baby
You need tender hands to guide them all the way
You need hands to thank the Lord for living....
And forgiving us this day....

You need hands to show the world you're happy
And you need hands when you have to stop the bus....
