[00:01.46]Hitsville U.K. - The Clash
[00:22.66]They cried the tears, they shed the fears,
[00:27.21]Up and down the land,
[00:32.05]They stole guitars or used guitars
[00:36.43]- So the tape would understand,
[00:41.70]Without even the slightest hope of a 1000 sales
[00:51.92]Just as if, as if there was, a hitsville in U.K.,
[01:00.75]I know the boy was all alone, til the hitsville hit U.K.
[01:10.80]They say true talent will allways emerge in time,
[01:19.80]When lightening hits small wonder
[01:24.80]Its fast rough factory trade,
[01:27.62]
[01:29.94]No expense accounts, or lunch discounts
[01:34.42]Or hypeing up the charts,
[01:39.56]The band went in, 'n knocked 'em dead, in 2 min. 59
[01:48.92]- No slimy deals, with smarmy eels - in hitsville U.K.
[01:57.88]
[02:22.60]Lets shake'n say, we'll operate - in hitsville U.K.
[02:40.20]
[02:41.43]I know the boy was all alone, til the hitsville hit U.K.
[02:51.09]The mutants, creeps and musclemen,
[02:55.75]Are shaking like a leaf,
[03:00.70]It blows a hole in the radio,
[03:04.87]When it hasnt sounded good all week,
[03:10.46]A mike'n boom, in your living room - in hitsville U.K.
[03:19.77]No consumer trials, or A.O.R., in hitsville U.K.,
[03:29.44]Now the boys and girls are not alone,
[03:33.87]Now the hitsville's hit U.K......
