Jam Thats Entertainment
Well, To whoever out there wanted them, here are the lyrics to "That's Entertainment" by the Jam. A police car and a screaming siren - A pneumatic drill and ripped up concrete - A baby wailing and stray dog howling - The screech of brakes and lamp light blinking - That's Entertainment. A smash of glass and a rumble of boots - An electric train and a ripped up 'phone booth - Paint splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat - Lights going out and a kick in the balls - That's Entertainment. Days of speed and slow time Mondays - Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday - Watching the news and not eating your tea - A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls - That's Entertainment. Waking up at 6 a.m. on a cool warm morning - Opening the windows and breathing in petrol - An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard - Watching the tele and thinking about your holidays - That's Entertainment. Waking up from bad dreams and smoking cigarettes - Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume - A hot summer's day and sticky black tarmac - Fedding ducks in the park and wishing you were far away - That's Entertainment. Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight - Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude - Getting a cab and travelling on buses - Reading the graffiti about slashed seat affairs - That's Entertainment. - Paul Weller, 1980 Long live the Jam, DJD ****************************************************************** * "Cause I hate you and your wife, * And if I get the chance, I'll f..ck up your life" * - Paul Weller, 'Mr. Clean' (1979) ******************************************************************
