Me or Him |
You wake up in the morning, get something for the pot
Wonder why the sun makes the rocks feel hot
Draw on the walls, eat, get
laid
Back in the good old days
Then some damn fool invents the wheel
Listen to the whitewalls
squeal
You spend all day looking for a parking spot
Nothing for the heart,
nothing for the pot
Benny turned the dial on his Short Wave radio
Oh how he wanted to talk to
the people,
he wanted his own show
Tune in Moscow. Tune in New
York
Listen to the Welsh kid talk
Communicating like in the good old
days
Forgive me father for I have sinned
It was either me or him
And a voice
said Benny
You fucked the whole thing up
Benny your time is up
Your
time is up
Benny turned the dial on his Short Wave radio
He wanted to talk to the
people
He wanted his own show
Tune in Moscow. Tune in New York
Listen
to the Welsh kid talk
Communicating like the good old days
The good old
days
Forgive me Father
Welsh Policeman: Mobile One Two to
Central.
For I have sinned
Welsh Policeman: We have a multiple on the A465
between Cwmbran and
Cylgoch.
Father it was either me or him.
Father can we turn back the
clock?
Welsh Policeman: Ambulance, over.
I never meant to drop
the concrete block.
Welsh Policeman: Roger central, over and
out.
Benny turned the dial on his Short Wave radio
He wanted to talk to the
people
He wanted his own show
Tune in Moscow. Tune in New York
Listen
to the Welsh kid talk
Just like in the good old days
The good old days
Radio announcer: Do you really think Iranian terrorists would have
taken
Americans hostage if Ronald Reagan were president?
Do you really
think the Russians would have invaded Afghanistan if Ronald
Reagan were
president?
Do you really think third-rate military dictators would laugh at
America and
burn our flag in contempt if Ronald Reagan were
president?
Concerned Citizen: Well, it might work!
Hostage: We as a group
do most importantly want to beseech President
Reagan and our fellow Americans to refrain from any form of military or violent
means as
an attempt, no matter how noble or heroic, to secure our
freedom.
Concerned Citizen: Sure! Only it's going to be mighty dangerous for
you, Cassidy.
Hoppy's faithful sidekick: guess you don't know Hopalong
Cassidy, Mister.
Adventure's his bread, excitement's his butter and danger,
why to him that's
like strawberry jam to top it off.
