The Magnificent Seven (Live at Shea Stadium)

[The Magnificent Seven Part I]

[Intro]

Don't you ever stop a'long enough to start?

Take your car outta that gear

Don't you ever stop a'long enough to start?

Take your car outta that gear

[Chorus]

Ring! Ring! It's 7:00 A.M.!

Move yourself to go again

Cold water in the face

Brings you back to this awful place

Knuckle merchants and you bankers, too

Must get up and learn those rules

Weather man the crazy chief

One says "Sun" and one says "Sleet"

A.M., the F.M. the P.M. too

Churnin' out that boogaloo

Gets you up and a'gets you out

But how long can you keep it up?

Gimme Honda, gimme Sony

So cheap and real phony

Hong Kong dollar, Indian cents

English pounds and Eskimo pence

[Post-Chorus]

You lot!

Don't stop, give it all you got

You lot! What?

Don't stop

You lot! What?

Don't stop, give it all you got

You lot! What?

Don't stop

[Verse 1]

Workin' for a rise, better my station

Take my baby to Sophistication

She's seen the ads, she thinks it's nice

Better work hard, I seen the price

Never mind that, it's time for the bus

We got to work, and you're one of us

Clocks go slow in a place of work

Minutes drag and the hours jerk

[Bridge]

"That's what I say, boss!"

[Pre-Chorus]

Wave bub-bub-bub-bye to the boss

It's our profit, it's his loss

But anyway, the lunch bell ring

Take one hour, and do your... thaaaang!

CHEESEBOIGEEER!!

[Joe Strummer]

"I play like a 12 inch, well this is a kind of... a black New York rhythm that we stole one night, so we think we grew our hair taking this little thing, I wanna take you to Jamaica... not yet, yes we are going down to Jamaica everybody, so hold on, fasten your seatbelts, extinguish all reefers"
