Lyrics
New Slough
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
We're pushing through
You talk of ancient gold
A tale already told and
The wall-street crack ain't coming back
You better face it
It's our time now, so don't you patronise
The tables have turned and we've rolled the dice
I'm a rebel with a cause
But I ain't no Richie Rich
You've forgotten who you were
Give it up for all the kids
'Cause I know the taste of blood
I know the smell of sweat
Look through my eyes and you'll see them wet
1-2-3, I'd like to look upon thee
I'm a rebel with a cause
But I ain't no Richie Rich
You've forgotten who you were
Give it up for all the kids
I'm a rebel with a cause
I'm a rebel with a cause
You've forgotten who you were
Give it up for all the kids
