Sex Pistols - The Great Rock 'n' Roll Swindle Lyrics
Artist: Sex Pistols
Album: Miscellaneous
Genre: Rock
- Songwriters: Paul Cook, Steve Jones, Julien Temple
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 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
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
