Mob rule Lyrics

Lyric discussion by rajasmasala 

Cover art for Mob rule lyrics by Robert Wyatt

"Residents mutter their doubts and fears at me??" is "Residents mutter their doubts and fears at meetings"

"There were a ??? pair" is "There were advisors and"

"????? good no" is "Underground, ???" (Perhaps "no good now"?)

"It's quite hard on chem???" is "It's quite hard on chairmen"

"Just as saver wood murmur must bore" is "Just as ?? woodworm must bore"

"So to must advisors must advise" is "So too advisors must advise"

Plans are unveiled the press informed Residents muttered their doubts and fears at meetings A brace of councilors voiced concern Some assent was murmured There were advisers and expert guidance had been sought

Whom to trust? Who could know just what that meant? Expert?

people are so ungrateful it's quite hard on chairmen directors of planning must be given the right to make plans just as say, the woodworm must bore so too advisers must advise.
