Chumbawamba - Salome Lyrics
Part punk part god almightyPart ***** you part Mr. X ray eyes- I didn't choose to beShouting for a living, it happenedSomething snapped; and I don't know whyToo many slaps? Too many priests?Fumbled sex in parks?Or just a part of the me me me generationThe thatcher youthComing home to roostIf the old school cap fits, wear itBut I'll take my cake and share itBurning down a bonfire made of teachersPay your vat bills on the cindersJust you and litlle molly flindersDoing the twist at all the dancesDon't look to me for answerLet's twist again, see them singLet's twist again, hear them singLet's twist againBring on the dancing girls!Part sussed part amateurPart love you part Mr. bleeding heartI singalonga, jump uppa-downa,Watch this spaceI've got lungsfuls of this stuffBoth sides together in the commons barJust who the *****Do they think they are?I am not a pop star -I am a part of the class war'Every revolutionaryis motivated by love'I see the newsreels: 200 bodiesIn a shallow grave in East Timor;What am I supposed to do?Forget it? Pretend it never happened?Whilst politicians circle-jerk aroundLegal jargon totem polesLet's twist again, see them singLet's twist again, hear them singLet's twist againBring on the dancing girls!You tell meWhere does entertainment endAnd responsibility begin?Oh Salome waitsShe says 'Bring me all the headsOf all the heads of state'Let's twist again, see them singLet's twist again, hear them singLet's twist againBring on the dancing girls!
