"The Great Rock 'N' Roll Swindle" lyrics - THE SEX PISTOLS

People said we couldn't play They called us foul-mouthed
But the only notes that really count
Are the ones that come in wads
They all drowned when the air turned blue
'Cos w didn't give a toss
Filthy lucre ain't nothing new
But we all get cash from chaos
The time is right to do it now
The greastes rock'n'roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
EMI said you're out of hand
And they gave us the boot
But they couldn't sack us just like that
Without giving us the loot
Thank you kindly A&M
They said we were out of bounds
But that ain't bad for two weeks work
And P75,000
The time is right to do it now
The greastes rock'n'roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
I just wanna play with my hand
Are you good enough for me
Hiya boys I'm the chosen one
Can't you fucking see
I'm a jealous god and I want everything
And I love you with a knife
I'll take you if you are ready for me
And I'll give you my life
The time is right to do it now
The greastes rock'n'roll swindle
The time is right to do it now
The time is right for Nickey's special
The greatest rock'n'roll swindle star
The time is right for me now
