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
