The Great Rock 'N' Roll Swindle Lyrics

People said we couldn´t play
They called us foul-mothed yobs
But the only notes that really count
Are the ones that come in wads

They all drowned when the air turned blue
´Cos we didn´t give a toss
Filthy lucre, ain´t nothing new
But we all get cash from chaos

The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock´n´roll swindle
The time is right to do it now

E.M.I. said you´re out of hand
And they gave us the boot
But they couldn´t sack us, just like that
Without giving us the loot

Thank you kindly A&M
They said we were out of bounds
But that ain´t bad for two weeks work
And 75,000 poundsThe Sex Pistols - The Great Rock 'N' Roll Swindle - http://motolyrics.com/the-sex-pistols/the-great-rock-n-roll-swindle-lyrics.html

The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock´n´roll swindle
The time is right to do it now

The time is right to do it now
The greatest rock´n´roll swindle
The time is right to do it now

I just wanna play with my band
Are you good enough for me
Hi ya boys I´m the choosen one
Can´t you fucking see

I´m a jealous god and I want everything
And I love you with a knife
I´ll take you, if you´re ready for me
And I´ll give you my life

The time is right for Nickey´s Special
The greatest rock´n´roll star
The time is right for me, now
