I can't take this tale, oh, no more
It's all around, Jimmy Jazz."

As in heaven, as in hell."

What you can't buy you gotta steal, and what you say can't steal you better leave."

Meltdown expected, the wheat tastes so thin
Engines stop running, but I have no fear
'cause London is drowning, and I live by the river."

Are they howling out or doing somebody harm ?
On a catwalk jungle somebody grabbed my arm
A voice spoke so cold it matched the weapon in her palm."

"How you get a rude and a reckless?
Don't you be so crude and a feckless
You been drinking brew for breakfast
Rudie can't fail."

Beaming waves from the sea
But now all the stations are silent
'cause they ain't got a government license."

Judging by this, they left nothing behind
Down in the bunkers in the crust of the earth
Now crouch the wealthy and the noble of birth."

As we watched the speech of an animal scream
The new party army was marching right over our heads."

"To the opium den and the barroom gin
In the Belmont chair playing violins
The gambler's face cracks into a grin
As he lays down the king of spades."

Move yourself to go again
Cold water in the face
Brings you back to this awful place."

"Now I'm round the back of your house at night
Peeping in the window, are you sleeping tight?
I laugh at your locks with my celloid strip
And you won't know who came."

Annotation :

"You have the right to free speech as long as you're not dumb enough to actually try it."
