Clash The Red Angel Dragnet Lyrics

Red Angel Dragnet Lyrics

Red Angel Dragnet 

 I come from a long way away 

 And I know a fine thing when I see it. 

 See it 

 For the same reason no one ever 

 Pointed a telescope at the sun 

 Talking about the Red Angels of New York City 

  

 CHORUS 

 Who shot the shot? 

 Who got shot tonite? 

  

 Not even five enforcement agencies can save their own. 

 Never mind the people 

 Tonite it's raining on the Angels of the City 

 Did anyone prophesize these people? 

  

 Only Travis 

 Come in Travis 

 One of these days I'm gonna get myself organized. 

 All the animals come out at night. 

 Queens, fairies, dopers, junkies, sick venal. 

 Some day a real rain will come and wash all the scum off the streets. 

  

 Thank god for the rain to wash the trash off the sidewalk. Listen you 

 screwheads: 

 Here is a man who would not take it anymore. 

 A man who stood up against the scum, the filth. 

 Now I see clearly. 

 Personally I know the alley 

 Where Jack feeds on the birds of night 

 Not even bubbies on bicycles 2x2 

 Can stop the blood and feathers flying 

 Waring overalls and for once and for all 

 What is the dream? 

 I'll tell it 

 To live like they do in the movies 

 San Juan you listening? 

  

 Yeah I bet you are 

 Hands up for Hollywood 

 Hooray 

 I hear you 

 Snappy on the air 

 Hang in their 

 Wall to wall 

 You saved the worled 

 What else? You saved the girl 

 Chmpagne on ice 

 No stranger to Alcatraz 

 To boot 

 Or strip it down 

 Chop it a little 

 Being reasonable 

 Just freedom to move 

 To live 

 For women to take a walk in the park at midnite 

 Hey, but this is serious 

 She can't even get back home 

  

 I come from a long way off 

 And I know a lifegiver over a lifetaker 

 For the same reason no-one ever pointed 

 A gun at a policeman 

 Talking about the Red Angels of New York City
