The Clash - Hitsville UK lyrics

They cried the tears, they shed the fears Up and down the land They stole guitars or used guitars So the tape would understand. Without even The slightest hope Of a thousand sales Just as if As if there was Hitsville in UK I Know the boy was all alone Till the Hitsville hit UK. Remember They say true talent Will always emerge in time When lightening hits small wonder It's fast rough factory trade No expense accounts Or lunch discounts Or hypeing up the charts The band went in And knocked 'em dead In two minutes fifty-nine I know the boy was all alone Till the Hitsville hit UK So hit it No slimy deals With smarmy eels In Hitsville UK Let's shake and say We'll operate In Hitsville UK I know the boy felt all alone Till the Hitsville hit UK The mutants, creeps and muscle men Are shaking like a leaf It blows a hole in the radio When it hasn't sounded good all week A mike 'n' boom In your living room In Hitsville UK No consumer trials No A.O.R. In Hitsville UK I know the boy felt all alone Till the Hitsville hit UK Now the boys and girls are not alone Now the Hitsville hit UK. I know the boys and girls are not alone Now the Hitsville hit UK. I know the boys and girls are not alone Now the Hitsville hit UK. I know the boys and girls are not alone Now the Hitsville hit UK.
