Clash - Stop The World Lyrics
The panorama of the city is wrongIn fact the city seems to be gone!Burning rubber and smoke in my eyesTheres a flat burning junkheapFor twenty square miles!They took it into the nuclear mineJudging by this, they left nothing behindDown in the bunkers in the crust of the earthNow crouch the wealthy and the noble of birthIf I could a ride a train around the cityThat holds this as our fateId hide from electro-circuit centralTo the shock inducer gateNot forgetting the by-passAcross the washington hooksThrough the phones and desks and screensOf the kremlins crook of crooksTheres some panel in a circuit boardDestination of the overrideScanning the wild windBlowing through the berlin corridorSpotlit in a palace, shielded from dustMalfunction or not, the failsafe is the cruxSo far away from us,Shaking with the mystery tearsOne lonely night in ladbroke groveFar away in the deserts of omaha!They got it nailed down-swiss tight!The bank notes of europeThe emperors and kingsCurl in the autumn as the burning of leavesAnd Ive cleaned my black guitar...
