311 - (White Man) In Hammersmith Palais (The Clash cover) lyrics

(A Clash cover song) Midnight to six man For the first time from Jamaica Dillinger and Leroy Smart Delroy Wilson, your cool operator Ken Boothe for UK pop reggae With backing bands sound systems If they've got anything to say There's many black ears here to listen But it was Four Tops all night with encores from stage right Charging from the ba** knives to the treble But onstage they ain't got no roots rock rebel Onstage they ain't got no... roots rock rebel Dress back jump back this is a bluebeat attack Jones'in won't get you anywhere Fooling with your guns The British Army is waiting out there An' it weighs fifteen hundred tons White youth, black youth Better find another solution Why not phone up Robin Hood And ask him for some wealth distribution Punk rockers in LA They won't notice anyway They're all too busy fighting For a good place under the lighting The new groups are not concerned With what there is to be learned They got Burton suits, ha you think it's funny Turning rebellion into money All over people changing their votes Along with their overcoats If Adolf Hitler flew in today They'd send a limousine anyway And the all night drug-prowling wolf Who looks so sick in the sun And the white man in the Palais But you go lookin' for fun I'm only looking for fun Oh please mister, leave me alone And I'm only looking for fun Looking for fun (breathing) Ow!
