The Great Rock 'N Roll Swindle Lyrics

Artist: Sex Pistols
Album: Jubilee

People said we couldnÂ´t play
The 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
Â´Cos we didnÂ´t give a toss
Filthy lucre, ainÂ´t nothing new
But we all get cash from the chaos
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rockÂ´nÂ´roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
E.M.I. said youÂ´re out of hand
And they gave us the boot
But they couldnÂ´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 ainÂ´t bad for two weeks work
And 75,000 pounds
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rockÂ´nÂ´roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rockÂ´nÂ´roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
I just wanna play with my hand
Are you good enough for me
Hiya boys IÂ´m the choosen one
CanÂ´t you fucking see
IÂ´m a jealous god and I want everything
And I love you with a knife
IÂ´ll take you, if youÂ´re ready for me
And IÂ´ll give you my life
The time is right to do it now
The greatest rockÂ´nÂ´roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
The time is right for NickeyÂ´s Special
The greatest rockÂ´nÂ´roll star
The time is right for me, now!
