Clash The Somebody Got Murdered Lyrics

Somebody Got Murdered Lyrics

Someone lights a cigarette

 While riding in a car

 Some ol' guy takes a swig

 And passes back the jar

 But where they were last night

 No-one can remember

 Somebody got murdered

 Goodbye, for keeps, forever

 

 Somebody got murdered

 Somebody's dead forever

 

 And you're minding your own business

 Carrying spare change

 You wouldn't cosh a barber

 You're hungry all the same

 I been very tempted

 To grab it from the till

 I been very hungry

 But not enough to kill

 

 Somebody got murdered

 His name cannot be found

 A small stain on the pavement

 They'll scrub it off the ground

 As the daily crown disperses

 No-one says that much

 Somebody got murdered

 And it' left me with a touch

 

 Somebody got murdered

 Somebody's dead forever

 Sounds like murder!

 Those shouts!

 Are they drunk down below?

 

 It's late, and my watch stopped

 Some time ago

 Sounds like murder!

 Those screams!

 Are they drunk down below?
