Memphis, Egypt

Jon Langford
Destroy your safe and happy lives before it is too late
The battles we fought were long and hard
Just not to be consumed by rock ' roll...
Capitalismos, favorite boy child, we must apologise
Up in the rafters a rope is danglin'
Spots before the eyes of rock ' roll...
We know the devil and we have shaken him by the hand
Embraced him and thought his foul (stinking) breath was fine perfume
Just like rock ' roll...
East berlin can't buy a thing, there's nothing they can sell me
Walk through the wall no pain at all
I'm born inside the belly of rock ' roll...
It's something to sell your labor for when hair sprouts out below
I'm a microscope on that secret place where
We all want to go, it's rock ' roll
