Kinks - Scrapheap City Lyrics
Sung by: belle and the floosies(as flashs empire is being dismantled piece by piece)There aint no beautyAnd there aint no style,Theres no qualityAnd theres no purity.Honours dead and buriedBecause its unnecessary.Look at all the people,Why they all look the same.Theyre walking to the factoryIn their cloth caps and trilbies.Theyve got no style,Aint it a pity.Theyre tearing old quality downWithout any pity,Now theyre coming to take me awayTo scrapheap city.They say that good manners belong on a heap,They say theyre outdated and theyre obsolete,And now theyre coming to take me awayTo scrapheap city.Theres no qualityAnd there aint no styleJust miles and milesOf scrapheap piles.Theres no qualityAnd theres no purity.Theyre digging up all of the flowersBecause they look prettyAnd erecting identical concrete monstrosities.Theyre killing off all of the animals too,The only ones left are the ones in the zoo.Now theyre coming to take me awayTo scrapheap city.Aint it a pity,Scrapheap city.
