Clash City Rockers Lyrics
I wanna move the town to the clash city rockers
ou need a little jump of electrical shockers
you better leave town if you only wanna knock us
nothing stands the pressure of the clash city rockers
you see the rate they come down the escalator
now listen to the tube train accelerator
then you realize that you got to have a purpose
or this place is gonna knock you out sooner or later
so don't complain about your useless employment
jack it in forever tonight
so shut your mouth
and pretend you enjoy it
think of all the money you've got
an' I wanna liquefy everybody gone dry
or plug into the aerials that poke up in the sky
or burn down the suburbs with the half-closed eyes
you wont succeed unless you try
you owe me a move say the bells of St. groove
come on and show me say the bells of old Bowie
when I am fitter say the bells of Gary Glitter
no one but you and I say the bells of prince far-I
no one but you and I say the bells of prince far-I
rock rock clash city rockers.
ou need a little jump of electrical shockers
you better leave town if you only wanna knock us
nothing stands the pressure of the clash city rockers
you see the rate they come down the escalator
now listen to the tube train accelerator
then you realize that you got to have a purpose
or this place is gonna knock you out sooner or later
so don't complain about your useless employment
jack it in forever tonight
so shut your mouth
and pretend you enjoy it
think of all the money you've got
an' I wanna liquefy everybody gone dry
or plug into the aerials that poke up in the sky
or burn down the suburbs with the half-closed eyes
you wont succeed unless you try
you owe me a move say the bells of St. groove
come on and show me say the bells of old Bowie

no one but you and I say the bells of prince far-I
no one but you and I say the bells of prince far-I

This is a Clash cover song..i think it's about how the clash is comming to town and some jerks don't like the music and don't want them to play punk rock in their town, so he's telling them to 'shut your mouth and pretend you enjoy it'. good song.
This song is so rad. I know it's a cover and all, but the guitar riffs matched with Chris' voice are so awesome.
this song is so great...people should pay attention to their older stuff...you know ehn they werent what the "popular" kids liked.
This song totally rocks my socks!!!!!!
i love std but the original is sooo much better...
well, duh. saves the day embarassed themselves by fuckin approaching this song.
this song rocks my world, but the original would probably rock it harder.
Um, im sorry, i didnt realize any of the (quote on quote) "popular" people, even cared about Saves The Day...just because their on mtv doesnt mean everyones going to start liking them. I have asked like 100 people from 2 different states and no one knows who they are. And if they do know who they are they just think their the freaks who sing at your funeral (not one of their best songs) and freakish...i guess you have to listen to their old stuff to appreciate the new stuff anyway cause wherever they seem to go musicalty sounds good to me...."Through Being Cool" is, however, thier best cd in my opinion.
i agree with allstarme.
i would have to agree with StarLoveHeartXoxO, except for the part when he/she says that through being cool is their best cd. that title would have to go to can't slow down. mainly because of "jodie" and "houses and billboards" and the rest of the album. man...that cd rules. i'm gonna go and listen to it right now.
p.s. i like this song
