1.Armagideon Time
(w. williams／j. mitoo)
Stay around don't play around
This old town and all
Seems like i got to travel on
A lot of people won't get no supper tonight
A lot of people won't get no justice tonight
The battle is gettin hotter
In this iration, armagideon time
A lot of people runnin and a hiding tonight
A lot of people won't get no justice tonight
Remember to kick it over
No one will guide you - armagideon time

2.Capital Radio(One Two)
(strummer／jones)
Yes, it's time for the dr. goebbels
Show!
There's a tower in the heart of london
With a radio station right at the top
They don't make the city beat
They're making all the action stop
A long time ago there were pirates
Beaming waves from the sea
But now all the stations are silenced
'cos they ain't got a government license
Wanna tell your problems
Phone in from your bedsit room
Having trouble with your partner
Let us all in on the news
If you wanna hear a record
Get the word from aiden day
He picks all the hits to play
To keep you in your place all day
Capital radio
In tune with nothing
Don't touch that dial
3.Career Opportunities
(strummer／jones)
The offered me the office, offered me the
Shop
They said i'd better take anything they'd got
Do you wanna make tea at the bbc？
Do you wanna be, do you really wanna be a cop？
Career opportunities are the ones that never knock
Every job they offer you is to keep you out the dock
Career opportunity, the ones that never knock
I hate the army an' i hate the r.a.f.
I don't wanna go fighting in the tropical heat
I hate the civil service rules
And i won't open letter bombs for you
Bus driver....ambulance man....ticket inspector
They're gonna have to introduce conscription
They're gonna have to take away my prescription
If they wanna get me making toys
If they wanna get me, well, i got no choice
Careers
Careers
Careers
Ain't never gonna knock
4.City Of The Dead
(strummer／jones)
This is the city of the dead
As we lie side by side in bed
I'd do something else instead
But it is the city of the dead
We went out kickin' around
But you got drunk an' fallen down
An' i wished i could be like you
With the soho river drinking me down
In the city of the dead
Fall in love an' fall in bed
It wasn't anything you said
Except i know we both lie dead
Don't you know where to cop
That's what new york johnny said ＊ ＊ ＊ ＊
You should get to know your town
Just like i know mine
While all the windows stare ahead
An' the streets are filled with dread
Every nation in the world
Slinks through the alley after girls
What we wear is dangerous gear
It'll get you picked on anywhere
Though we get beat up we don't care
At least it livens up the air
But somedays we hide inside
All courage gone and paralysed
Sniff that wind of ugly tension
Today the jerks have got aggression
It is the city of the dead
＊johnny thunders
5.Clash City Rockers
(strummer／jones)
An' i wanna move the town to the clash city
Rockers
You need a little jump of electrical shockers
You better leave town if you only wanna knock us
Nothing stands the pressure of the clash city rockers
You see the rate they come down the escalator
Now listen to the tube train accelerator
Then you realise that you got to have a purpose
Or this place is gonna knock you out sooner or later
So don't complain about your useless employment
Jack it in forever tonight
Or shut your mouth and pretend you enjoy it
Think of all the money you've got
An' i wanna liquefy everybody gone dry
Or plug into the aerials that poke up in the sky
Or burn down the suburbs with the half-closed eyes
You won't succeed unless you try
You owe me a move say the bells of st. groove
Come on and show me say the bells of old bowie
When i am fitter say the bells of gary glitter
No one but you and i say the bells of prince far-i
No one but you and i say the bells of prince far-i
An' i wanna move the town to the clash city rockers
You need a little jump of electrical shockers
You better leave town if you only wanna knock us
Nothing stands the pressure of the clash city rockers
Rock rock clash city rockers
6.Complete Control
(strummer／jones)
They said release 'remote control'
But we didn't want it on the label
They said, 'fly to amsterdam'
The people laughed but the press went mad
Ooh ooh ooh someone's really smart
Ooh ooh ooh complete control, that's a laugh
On the last tour my mates couldn't get in
I'd open up the back door but they'd get run out again
At every hotel we was met by the law
Come for the party - come to make sure!
Ooh ooh ooh have we done something wrong？
Ooh ooh ooh complete control, even over this song
They said we'd be artistically free
When we signed that bit of paper
They meant let's make a lotsa mon-ee
An' worry about it later
Ooh ooh ooh i'll never understand
Ooh ooh ooh complete control - lemme see your other hand!
All over the news spread fast
They're dirty, they're filthy
They ain't gonna last!
This is joe public speaking
I'm controlled in the body, controlled in the mind
Total
C-o-n control - that means you!
7.I Fought The Law
(sonny curtis)
Breakin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the law won (twice)
I needed money 'cause i had none
I fought the law and the law won (twice)
I left my baby and it feels so bad
Guess my race is run
She's the best girl that i ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the
Robbin' people with a six-gun
I fought the law and the law won (twice)
I lost my girl and i lost my fun
I fought the law and the law won (twice)
I left my baby and it feels so bad
Guess my race is run
She's the best girl that i ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the
I fought the law and the law won (7 times)
I fought the law and the
8.Know Your Rights
This is a public service announcement
With guitar
Know your rights all three of them
Number 1
You have the right not to be killed
Murder is a crime!
Unless it was done by a
Policeman or aristocrat

And number 2
You have the right to food money
Providing of course you
Don't mind a little
Investigation, humiliation
And if you cross your fingers
Rehabilitation
Know your rights
These are your rights
Wang

Number 3

Speech as long as you're not
Dumb enough to actually try it.

In some quarters that this is not enough!
Well..............................

9.London's Burning
(strummer／jones)
London's burning! london's burning!
All across the town, all across the night
Everybody's driving with full headlights
Black or white turn it on, face the new religion
Everybody's sitting 'round watching television!
London's burning with boredom now
London's burning dial 99999
I'm up and down the westway, in an' out the lights
What a great traffic system - it's so bright
I can't think of a better way to spend the night
Then speeding around underneath the yellow lights
London's burning with boredom now
London's burning dial 99999
Now i'm in the subway and i'm looking for the flat
This one leads to this block, this one leads to that
The wind howls through the empty blocks looking for a home
I run through the empty stone because i'm all alone
London's burning with boredom now...
London's burning dial 99999
10.London Calling
(strummer／jones)
London calling to the faraway towns
Now that war is declared-and battle come down
London calling to the underworld
Come out of the cupboard, all you boys and girls
London calling, now don't look at us
All that phoney beatlemania has bitten the dust
London calling, see we ain't got no swing
'cept for the ring of that truncheon thing
Chorus
The ice age is coming, the sun is zooming in
Engines stop running and the wheat is growing thin
A nuclear error, but i have no fear
London is drowning-and i live by the river
London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it, brother, an' go it alone
London calling upon the zombies of death
Quit holding out-and draw another breath
London calling-and i don't wanna shout
But when we were talking-i saw you nodding out
London calling, see we ain't got no highs
Except for that one with the yellowy eyes
Chorus
Now get this
London calling, yeah, i was there, too
An' you know what they said？ well, some of it was true!
London calling at the top of the dial
After all this, won't you give me a smile？
I never felt so much a' like
11.Should I Stay Or Should I Go
Darling you gotta let me know
Should i stay or should i go？
If you say that you are mine
I'll be here 'til the end of time
So you got to let know
Should i stay or should i go？
Always tease tease tease
Siempre - coqetiando y enganyando
You're happy when i'm on my knees
Me arrodilla y estas feliz
One day is fine, next is black
Un dias bien el otro negro
So if you want me off your back
Al rededar en tu espalda
Well come on and let me know
Me tienes que desir
Should i stay or should i go？
Me debo ir o que darme
Should i stay or should i go now？
Should i stay or should i go now？
If i go there will be trouble
An' if i stay it will be double
So come on and let me know
This indecision's bugging me
Esta undecision me molesta
If you don't want me, set me free
Si no me quieres, librame
Exactly who'm i'm supposed to be
Diga me que tengo ser
Don't you know which clothes even fit me？

Si me voi - va ver peligro
And if i stay it will be double
Si me quedo es doble
So you gotta let me know
Me tienes que decir
Should i stay or should i go？
yo me frio o lo sophlo？
12.Straight To Hell
If you can play on the fiddle
How's about a british jig and reel？
Speaking king's english in quotation
As railhead towns feel the steel mills rust water froze
In the generation
Clear as winter ice
This is your paradise
There ain't no need for ya
Go straight to hell boys
Y'wanna join in a chorus
Of the amerasian blues？
When it's christmas out in ho chi minh city
Kiddie say papa papa papa papa-san take me home
See me got photo photo
Photograph of you
Mamma mamma mamma-san
Of you and mamma mamma mamma-san
Lemme tell ya 'bout your blood bamboo kid.
It ain't coca-cola it's rice.
Straight to hell
Oh papa-san
Please take me home
Oh papa-san
Everybody they wanna go home
So mamma-san says
You wanna play mind-crazed banjo
On the druggy-drag ragtime u.s.a.？
In parkland international
Hah! junkiedom u.s.a.
Where procaine proves the purest rock man groove
And rat poison
The volatile molatov says-
Pssst...
Hey chico we got a message for ya...
Vamos vamos muchacho
From alphabet city all the way a to z, dead, head
Go straight to hell
Can you really cough it up loud and strong
The immigrants
They wanna sing all night long
It could be anywhere
Most likely could be any frontier
Any hemisphere
No man's land and there ain't no asylum here
King solomon he never lived round here
Go straight to hell boys
13.The Guns Of Brixton
(paul simonon)
When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come？
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun
When the law break in
How you gonna go？
Shot down on the pavement
Or waiting on death row
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of brixton
The money feels good
And your life you like it well
But surely your time will come
As in heaven, as in hell
You see, he feels like ivan
Born under the brixton sun
His game is called survivin'
At the end of the harder they come
You know it means no mercy
They caught him with a gun
No need for the black maria
Goodbye to the brixton sun
You can crush us
You can bruise us
Yes, even shoot us
But oh-the guns of brixton
When they kick at your front door
How you gonna come？
With your hands on your head
Or on the trigger of your gun
You can crush us
You can bruise us
Yes, even shoot us
But oh-the guns of brixton
Shot down on the pavement
Waiting in death row
His game is called survivin'
As in heaven as in hell
You can crush us
You can bruise us
But you'll have to answer to
Oh, the guns of brixton
14.The Magnificent Seven
Ring! ring! it's 7：00 a.m.!
Move y'self to go again
Cold water in the face
Brings you back to this awful place
Knuckle merchants and you bankers, too
Must get up an' learn those rules
Weather man and the crazy chief
One says sun and one says sleet
A.m., the f.m. the p.m. too
Churning out that boogaloo
Gets you up and gets you out
But how long can you keep it up？
Gimme honda, gimme sony
So cheap and real phony
Hong kong dollars and indian cents
English pounds and eskimo pence
You lot! what？
Don't stop! give it all you got!
You lot! what？
Don't stop! yeah!
Working for a rise, better my station
Take my baby to sophistication
She's seen the ads, she thinks it's nice
Better work hard - i seen the price
Never mind that it's time for the bus
We got to work - an' you're one of us
Clocks go slow in a place of work
Minutes drag and the hours jerk
'when can i tell 'em wot i do？
In a second, maaan...oright chuck!'
Wave bub-bub-bub-bye to the boss
It's our profit, it's his loss
But anyway lunch bells ring
Take one hour and do your thanng!
Cheeesboiger!
What do we have for entertainment？
Cops kickin' gypsies on the pavement
Now the news - snap to attention!
The lunar landing of the dentist convention
Italian mobster shoots a lobster
Seafood restaurant gets out of hand
A car in the fridge
Or a fridge in the car？
Like cowboys do - in t.v. land
You lot! what？ don't stop. huh？
So get back to work an' sweat some more
The sun will sink an' we'll get out the door
It's no good for man to work in cages
Hits the town, he drinks his wages
You're frettin', you're sweatin'
But did you notice you ain't gettin'？
Don't you ever stop long enough to start？
To take your car outta that gear
Don't you ever stop long enough to start？
To get your car outta that gear
Karlo marx and fredrich engels
Came to the checkout at the 7-11
Marx was skint - but he had sense
Engels lent him the necessary pence
What have we got？ yeh-o, magnificence!!
Luther king and mahatma gandhi
Went to the park to check on the game
But they was murdered by the other team
Who went on to win 50-nil
You can be true, you can be false
You be given the same reward
Socrates and milhous nixon
Both went the same way - through the kitchen
Plato the greek or rin tin tin
Who's more famous to the billion millions？
News flash： vacuum cleaner sucks up budgie
Oooohh...bub-bye
Magnificence!!
Fucking long, innit？
15.Train In Vain
(strummer／jones)
Say you stand by your man
Tell me something i don't understand
You said you love me and that's a fact
Then you left me, said you felt trapped
Well some things you can explain away
But my heartache's in me till this day
Chorus
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
All the times
When we were close
I'll remember these things the most
I see all my dreams come tumbling down
I won't be happy without you around
So all alone i keep the wolves at bay
There is only one thing that i can say
Chorus
You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Now i got a job
But it don't pay
I need new clothes
I need somewhere to stay
But without all these things i can do
But without your love i won't make it through
But you don't understand my point of view
I suppose there's nothing i can do
Chorus
You must explain why this must be
Did you lie when you spoke to me？
Did you stand by me
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
Did you stand by me
No, not at all
Did you stand by me
No way
16.What's My Name
(strummer／jones／levene)
What the hell is wrong with me？ i'm not
Who i want to be
I tired spot cream an' i tried it all i'm crawling up the wall!
What's my name naaaame...naaaame....naaaame....
I tried to join a ping-pong club, sign on the door said all full
up!
I got nicked, fighting in the road an' the judge didn't even
know
What's my name
Dad go pissed so i got clocked
Couldn't hear the tannoy so he lost the lot
Offers mum a bribe through the letter box
Drives you fucking mad
What's my name
Now i'm round the back of your house at night
Peeping in the window - are you sleeping tight？
I laugh at your locks with my celloid strip
An' you won't know who came
What's my name
17.White Man In Hammersmith Palais
(strummer／jones)
Midnight to six man
For the first time from jamaica
Dillinger and leroy smart
Delroy wilson, your cool operator
Ken boothe for uk pop reggae
With backing bands sound systems
And if they've got anything to say
There's many black ears here to listen
But it was four tops all night with encores from stage right
Charging from the bass knives to the treble
But onstage they ain't got no roots rock rebel
Onstage they ain't got no...roots rock rebel
Dress back jump back this is a bluebeat attack
'cos it won't get you anywhere
Fooling with your guns
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 in the uk
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, ha you think it's funny
Turning rebellion into money
All over people changing their votes
Along with their overcoats
If adolf hitler flew in today
They'd send a limousine anyway
I'm the all night drug-prowling wolf
Who looks so sick in the sun
I'm the white man in the palais
Just lookin' for fun
I'm only
Looking for fun
