Sweep and Swipe
Get out my brush dust and hush pan,
You might just see me work again. Lying in on Saturdays, not all day every day, My radio blaring out, my overcoat wearing out. Shabby enough to be someone's man, But no-one's missing this one. Get out my brush dust and hush pan, If this is rebellion - give me a sandwich, If this is rebellion - give me a monkey wrench. Sweep and swipe with a will, shave off my stubborn hill, And strap on my lunatic's suit and tie, Screw in my social eyes, Put aside my off-wall tricks for happy days of nine to six, I'll meet new people, oil and water, swine and pearls, Salt and pepper, boys and girls, If this is rebellion - give me a sandwich, If this is rebellion - give me a monkey wrench. I was patriotic and full of pride, Until the lid came off and I saw inside! I dropped my soul down an iron grating, Spent my life trying to fish for it With a piece of chewing gum on a string. I haven't got it yet but I ain't gonna quit, Is this rebellion? Give me a sandwich, Give me a handshake, Give me a monkey wrench, Give me rebellion! Rebellion... Rebellion... Rebellion... Rebellion... Get out my brush dust and hush pan, You might just hear from me again. |
Jill Stuart's Dark Days are OverJill Stuart's dark days are over,
Her field's coming up with clover, She is stone cold and sober, Now Jill's dark days are over. She: said come up and see her some time. In amongst her favourite ruins, Her hospitality is brewing, Her laugh is at least as deep and wise as her weeping eyes. Jill Stuart's dark days are over, Her spirit starts to recover, We've all heard the rumour That Jill's dark days are over. She: said come up and see her some time, Her Berlin walls have crumbled, Her visage is now untroubled, The silhouette of her and her demon gave up the struggle. There was a positive rumour, It was positively over. Her winter's now Midsummer, She woke up sane and sober. Jill''s dark days are over, Jill's dark days are over. Her dark days are now over, her dark days are now over. |
