Revolution Rock

[JimmyJazz]

Revolution rock, it is a brand new rock
A bad, bad rock, this here revolution rock

Careful how you move, mac, you dig me in me back
An’ I’m so pilled up that I rattle
I have got the sharpeest knife, so I cut the biggest slice
But I have no time to do battle

Everybody smash up your seats and rock to this
Brand new beat
This here music mash up the nation
This here music cause a sensation
Tell your ma, tell your pa everything’s gonna be all right
Can’t you feel it? don’t ignore it
Gonna be arl-right

Revolution rock, I am in a state of shock
So bad, bad rock, this here revolution rock

Careful how you slide, clyde, all you did was glide
And you poured your beer in me hat
With my good eye on the beat, living on fixation strete
And I ai’t got no time for that

6. Did you see what Bob Geldof said about the Clash?

Don't know what got into him. I remember after Joe died he had nothing but nice things to say about him and now this. :shrug: I never was a Boomtown Rats fan myself and without Live Aid Sir Bob would have faded into obscurity a long, long time ago.

From contactmusic.com

Irish rocker SIR BOB GELDOF has accused his former contemporaries THE CLASH of being a s**t band who faked their punk image.

The ex-BOOMTOWN RATS star is still bitter the SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO hitmakers came to epitomise the serious punk revolution in late 1970s Britain, while his band were marginalised.

Geldof rages, "The Clash had outfits designed for them. But somehow they were supposed to have more integrity? Why? This ersatz passion was just b**locks.

"I didn't like their records until LONDON CALLING (1979 album). I said 99 per cent of the music is s**t and I was right. It hasn't survived.

"All that 'Hey right! The revolution!' tripe drove me mad! F**k off, you c**t. JOE (STRUMMER) and MICK (JONES) wanted to be MICK (JAGGER) and KEITH (RICHARDS)!

"Plain as f**king day! Yet we were frozen out."

8. That's for shit - Geldof is an asswipe.

Joe thought Geldof was an "arse kisser" who would do anything his record label asked just to get along.

Besides, aside from "I Don't Like Monday's" and Live Aid - the Boomtown Rats are a big fat hairy nuffin.
