Lyrics (No Song Structure yet):
===============================
Midnight to six, man
for the first time from Jamaica
Dillinger and Leroy Smart
Delroy Wilson, cool operator
Ken Boothe, U.K. pop reggae
with backing bands sound systems.
If they got anything to say,
there's many black ears here to listen
But it was Four Tops all night
With encores from stage right,
charges from the base knives to the treble
But on stage they ain't got no roots, rock, rebel.
On stage they ain't got no roots, rock, rebel.
Jonesin' won't get you anywhere
Foolin with a gun
The British Army is waiting out there
An' it weighs fifteen hundred tons.
White youth, black youth,
Better find another solution.
Why not phone up Robin Hood
And ask him for some wealth distribution
Punk rockers - L.A>
They won't notice anyway
They're all too busy fighting
For a good place under the lighting
The new groups are not concerned
With what there is to be learned.
They got Burton suits, huh, you think it's funny
Turning rebelion into money
All over people changing their votes
Along with their overcoats
If Adolf Hitler flew in today
They'd send a limosine anyway
I'm the all-night, drug prowling wolf
Who looks so sick in the sun.
I'm the white man in the Palais
Who goes looking for fun
I'm only looking for fun
Oh, please mister, just leave me alone
Cause I'm only looking for fun
Looking looking looking for fun
Looking looking looking for fun
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official 311 tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
