Clash Lyrics / Allen Ginsberg Lyrics
/ Do the worm on the Accropolis
/ Slamdance the Cosmopolis
/ Enlighten the populace
Hungry darkness of living
Who will thirst in the pit? / Hooked in metropolis
She spent a lifetime deciding
How to run from it / addicts of metropolis
Once fate had a witness
And the years seemed like friends / girlfriends
Her babies can dream
But dreams begin like the end / shot into eternity
/ Methadone Kitty
/ Iron serenity
Ghetto defendant
It is heroin pity
Not tear gas nor baton charge
That stops you taking the city / strung out committee
Walled out of the city
Clubbed down from uptown
Sprayed pest from the nest
Run out to Barrio Town / the guards are itchy
Forced to watch at the feast
Then sweep up the night
Flipped pieces of coin / broken bottles
