The Clash - Hitsville U.k. 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 1000 sales Just as if, as if there was, a hitsville in u.k., I know the boy was all alone, til the hitsville hit u.k. They say true talent will allways emerge in time, When lightening hits small wonder - Its fast rough factory trade, No expense accounts, or lunch discounts Or hypeing up the charts, The band went in, 'n knocked 'em dead, in 2 min. 59 - no slimy deals, with smarmy eels - in hitsville u.k. Lets shake'n say, we'll operate - in hitsville u.k. The mutants, creeps and musclemen, Are shaking like a leaf, It blows a hole in the radio, When it hasnt sounded good all week, A mike'n boom, in your living room - in hitsville u.k. No consumer trials, or a.o.r., in hitsville u.k., Now the boys and girls are not alone, Now the hitsville's hit u.k.
