Lyrics

People said we couldn't play They called us foul-mouthed yobs But the only notes that really count Are the ones that come in wads They all drowned when the air turned blue 'Cos we didn't give a toss Filthy lucre, ain't nothing new But we all get cash from chaos The time is right to do it now The greatest rock'n'roll swindle The time is right to do it now E.M.I. said you're out of hand And they gave us the boot But they couldn't sack us just like that Without giving us the loot Thank you kindly A & M They said we were out of bounds But that ain't bad for two weeks' work And 75,000 thousand pounds The time is right to do it now The greatest rock'n'roll swindle The time is right to do it now The time is right to fuck you now The greatest rock'n'roll swindle The time is right to do it now I just wanna play with my band Are you good enough for me? Hiya boys, I'm the chosen one Can't you fucking see? I'm a jealous God and I want everything And I love you with a knife I'll take you, if you're ready for me And I'll give you my life The time is right for Nickey's special The greatest Rock'n'Roll star The time is right for me now I kill Elvis Presley died in 1959 Chuck Berry you're a big ugly fucker Rock'n'Roll Rock'n'Roll swindle Ian Dury Cockney fraud Mick Jagger white nigga Bob Dylan got a parking ticket stuck to his arsehole David Bowie is a fucking cunt Malcolm Mc Rock'n'Roll swindle Rock'n'Roll Rod Stewart's got a luggage label tied to his tonsils Elton John hair transplant Rock'n'Roll Sid Vicious Rock'n'Roll cliché Paul Cook bare bones Rock'n'Roll Johnny Rotten - aah, his days are even numbered Rock'n'Roll Rock'n'Roll swindle Rock'n'Roll swindle Rock'n'Roll swindle Rock'n'Roll swindle Rock'n'Roll swindle Rock'n'Roll swindle Rock'n'Roll swindle Rock'n'Roll Swindle It's a swindle!
