Clash The Stay Free Lyrics

Stay Free Lyrics

(strummer/jones)

 

 We met when we were in school

 Never took no shit from no one, we weren't fools

 The teacher says we're dumb

 We're only having fun

 We piss on everyone

 In the classroom

 

 When we got thrown out i left without much fuss

 An' weekends we'd go dancing

 Down streatham on the bus

 You always made me laugh

 

 Got me in bad fights

 Play me pool all night

 Smokin' menthol

 

 I practised daily in my room

 You were down the crown planning your next move

 Go on a nicking spree

 Hit the wrong guy

 Each of you get three

 Years in brixton

 

 I did my very best to write

 How was butlins?

 Were the screws too tight?

 When you lot get out

 Were gonna hit the town

 We'll burn it fuckin' down

 To a cinder

 

 Cos years have passed and things have changed

 And i move anyway i wanna go

 I'll never forget the feeling i got

 When i heard that you'd got home

 An' i'll never forget the smile on my face

 'cos i knew where you would be

 An' if you're in the crown tonight

 Have a drink on me

 But go easy...step lightly...stay free
