OLD CLASH FAN FIGHT SONG - BILLY BRAGG
======================================
Not sure if this is 100% right (especially the chorus), transcribed from seeing him
Youtube footage and a live recording of the song. Lyrics come from a live boot, so may
from other times he's played it. Any comments welcome
Listen to the song (obviously) to get the right timing.
I've got a mate who lives in Vermont
He couldn't find the music he wanted
Sick and tired of the corporation
He went and started his own radio station
Now he's on the air each day
Telling folks about a different way
Plays Billy Bragg and a bit of Green Day
And 'I'm So Bored With The U.S.A.'
Woah-oh-oh-oh
People are on the move
Woah-oh-oh-oh
People got a lot to prove
I've got a buddy who delivers the post
Up and down the North-East Coast
When the Clash came to town
He'd never miss them
He still wants to bust the system
But he has to go to work
That doesn't make him some kind of jerk
Put food on the table, you know how that feels
It doesn't mean he's lost his ideals
Woah-oh-oh-oh
People are moving on
Woah-oh-oh-oh
George Bush will soon be gone
The Clampdown is still coming down hard
Police and Thieves are all over my yard
But these heavy manners don't worry me
Cos I'm a heavier dude than I used to be
Woah-oh-oh-oh
People are moving on
Woah-oh-oh-oh
George Bush will soon be gone
Co-operation, not competition
Co-operation, is not sedition
