Shouting Street - Joe Strummer

Down on the corner under the railway

I hear the old people saying

It was better without you babe

It was better without

You wanna live on Shouting Street

Watch your Punjabi

You wanna bop it on Shouting Street

Lay off me Biriani

Now take my motor — Now thats a bargain

No M.O.T ans the whatsit needs welding

Tell ya who’s a-gonna fix it for you

Tell ya who’s a-gonna fix it for you

Take it down to Shouting Street

There’ll be a geezer

He’s gotta shack on Shouting Street

One greasy geezer

He’s got a real sideline from Scandinavia

Where they understand things of that nature

Don’t a-tell that you got it from him

Oh don’t tell that you got it from him

Say you got it out on Shouting Street

Say you found it in the garbage

Say you got it out on Shouting Street

Say you got it from Jim Jarmusch

Let me rock it out on Shouting Street

Just like Eddie Cochran

We’ve see rough boys born of this manor

Always doing their nuts when they ain’t got spanners

But just you wait till they’ve been away

Just you wait till they’ve been away

They’ll be back down Shouting Street

Selling lady shavers

They’ll be back on Shouting Street

They got good behaviour

Oh let me rock it out on Shouting Street

And borrow money from me neighbours

Oh let me rick it out on Shouting Street

In fifty seven flavours
