Now lightning strikes in old New York It may be dark but I wanna talk It might rain, it might snow Too many things that I got to knowIf this is spring then it's time to sing Never mind the lil' birdies wing Look out, look out, old New York New York's coming an' New York talksHey, strike! Not once Strike! But twiceGet out your money, peel a slab Roll some notes an' hail a cab Drive in church drive in back Drive down Seventh in a tankTake in the sights, feel the breeze See New York's one and only tree It can be found in Garbage park But don't inspect it after darkStrike! New York! Lightning! Not once but twiceAccidental hike in the transit strike Roller skate or ride a bike Three to a car, Brooklyn Bridge You won't get far if you're privilegedGraffiti Jack sprays in black An Englishman, can he read it back? Deli Joe he ought to know He runs the gang on Pastrami RowStrike! Lightning Strike!Because glass to glass, street to street Buildings touch St. Peter's feet From car to bar, from Prez to Shah Everything is in the jar4 winds blow 'cause the 4 winds know Takes a special hustle to make a roll Honey girl on her feet I wish everything to make her sweetStrike twice Okay so roll [Incomprehensible] From Harlem, strike one Lightining strikeHarlem slum to penthouse block On every door I already knocked There wasn't anybody that I didn't leave alone Somebody lying under every stoneEverything that a man could need Is in a bag down by my knee That looks good, this ain't got seeds Cheaper than booze down in the boweryLightning strike! Old New York! Everything's light! Strike!Hey ho, such a night I'll see y'all when the lightning strike A polaroid caught in the act You're married too and that's a factBut I won't peek and I won't squeak Down by the trucks on Christopher Street It's Cuban Day, Oi Vey Chinese New Year let's call it a day[Incomprehensible] lightning strike! Yeah Tootsie! [Incomprehensible] Stike! Lightening! YeahHey Chi man that melody is Puerto Rican Hey Chi man is what he's speaking An' there's the road down into London Town Where many cars get broken downIt's the Westway from Ladbroke Grove Runs down to Old Hounslow [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible]Just thought I'd mention the new extension That run's down the 59th street intersection Did you hear the news y'all? London Town on the BroadwayStrike!
Это интересно:К началу 80-х в родной Великобритании Clash по популярности почти не знали конкурентов, уступая разве что The Jam. Баловни судьбы, они могли гордиться сразу двумя исключительно талантливыми композиторами в составе - Джо Страммером (Joe Strummer) и Миком Джонсом (Mick Jones), каждый из которых обладал уникальным стилем и голосом. Они не ограничивались рамками традиционного панк-рока, втягивая... продолжение
