A police car and a screaming siren

A pnuematic drill and ripped up concrete

A baby wailing and stray dog howling

The screech of brakes and lamplights blinking

That's entertainment

A smash of glass and the rumble of boots

An electric train and a ripped up 'phone booth

Paint splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat

Lights going out and a kick in the balls

That's entertainment

Days of speed and slow time Mondays

Pissing down with rain on a boring Wednesday

Watching the news and not eating your tea

A freezing cold flat and damp on the walls

That's entertainment

Waking up at 6 AM on a cool warm morning

Opening the windows and breathing in petrol

An amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard

Watching the tele and thinking about your holidays

That's entertainment

Waking up from bad dreams and smoking cigarettes

Cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume

A hot summers' day and sticky black tarmac

Feeding ducks in the park and wishing you were faraway

That's entertainment

Two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight

Two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude

Getting a cab and travelling on buses

Reading the grafitti about slashed seat affairs

That's entertainment
