The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle

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're out of bounds But that ain't bad for two weeks work And 75,000 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 do it now The greatest rock 'n' roll swindle The time is right to do it now I just wanna play with my hand Are you good enough for me Hiya boys, I'm the chosen one Can't you f**king 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 I'll give you my life The time is right to do it now The greatest rock 'n' roll swindle The time is right to do it now Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll swindle Rock 'n' roll
