Clap Hands Lyrics
I'll clap my hands along
and rattle on like a vagabond.
I'll rip my uniform
and bend the floor
to the early mornin
I'll shake my dollar bill
and spend it all before
the bombs 'll kill me.
I'll save my best for last
and after that
don't even ask
clap hands
dudududu dudu(x5)
I'll take my broken bell
and make it ring like a million churches
I'll scratch that kind of itch
down in the ditch
and switch my plates out.
I'll drive to san fransisco
death to disco
take my shirt off
I'll swim to mexico
don't tell mermaids
where I'm goin
clap hands
dudududu dudu(x5)
and rattle on like a vagabond.
I'll rip my uniform
and bend the floor
to the early mornin
I'll shake my dollar bill
and spend it all before
the bombs 'll kill me.
I'll save my best for last
and after that
don't even ask
dudududu dudu(x5)
and make it ring like a million churches
I'll scratch that kind of itch
down in the ditch
and switch my plates out.
I'll drive to san fransisco
death to disco
take my shirt off
I'll swim to mexico
don't tell mermaids
where I'm goin
clap hands
dudududu dudu(x5)

This is reaching here, but I think this song is about someone who is going to be happy, even if it kills him. If anything bad happens, he'll just ignore it and clap his hands.
maybe looking on the bright side of things...making the best out of a bad situation
Love this one live!
