Cheapskates (Live at the Lyceum) 歌詞
Cheapskates (Live at the Lyceum) - The Clash
I have been a washer up
An' he has been a scrubber up
An' I seen him a picking up
Dog ends in the rain
An' he has never a read book
Though I told him to take a look
He lifted his pool hall cue
For another game
But it ain't no modern miracle
That we found the golden rule
What you can't buy you gotta steal
An' what you say can't steal you better leave
I don't like to hang about
In this lonely room
London is for going out
And hear to a tune
People come pouncing up to me
"What are you doing here
Supposed to be a star
Cheapskate bleeding queer"
Like a load of rats from a sinking ship
You slag us down to save your hip
Don't give me the benefit of your doubt
'Cos I'll bite it off and spit it out
We're cheapskates anything'll do
We're cheapskates what are we supposed to do
An' we can rock hey hey let's roll
An' we can walk an' do the stroll
We're cheapskates anything'll do
We're cheapskates what to do anything'll
(Incomprehensible)
Just because we're in a group
You think we're stinking rich
An' we all got model girls
Shedding every stitch
You think the coc*ine's flowing
Like a river up our noses
An' every sea will part for us
Like the red one did for moses
Well I hope you make it one day
Just like you always said you would some day
And I'll get out my money and make a bet
I'll be seein' you down the Launderette
We're cheapskates anything'll do
We're cheapskates what to do anything'll
