Ghetto Defendant — текст песни (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
