What's this? The fucking Ginger Police? I heard the song at a club and downloaded it (legally and paid for, ok?) So I just have the one song, not the whole album that presumably has the lyrics. Thanks for your helpful response, a really friendly forum...

Perhaps explaining that situation in the first place might have made us all a lot more helpful!!!!!

Why go to lengths explaining? I made a perfectly valid request and got a glib, sarcastic reply, followed by a thinly veiled accusation. Just forget it ok?

Welcome to the board Mr angry.

Dear Mr. Zhukov:

We are actually quite a nice lot. Please forgive the lack of a warm welcome. Perhaps it is was subliminal xenophobic coldness brought on by a disdain that the Russian Mafia has taken over all the skin and drug trafficking in London.

MOTHER CITY

Well, I recognised every street that I'd seen in the movies.
I spent 24 hours on my feet, just walking around.
And my heart never beat so fast in all the years I'd been waiting.

Because heaven only knows, I never felt so close.

I was 6 years old when I saw Spiderman crouched down on a garbage can.

New York City, she's my Rock n Roll,
And she won't take back a cent I owe.
A mom and dad to this restless soul, you made me second Trumpets: Dave Connollly to none.
New York, the Mother, adopts another wandering Son.

I was the only kid in school
to find his own education.
The kind The Dolls, Ramones
and Kiss laid down.
So I'll wipe that tear and watch the dust settle on West Street.

Because heaven only knows, I never felt so close.

I was nine years old when they shot James Caan over by the toll-both stand.

Darling, you mean more to me than I thought you'd be.
Hey darling, you're the guts I need to turn on TV.

36 years old when they tried to beat you down.
Who do they think that they're messing around?

I wasnt "having a go" - GInger has a rather,er , flexible attitude to copying. No offence was intended.
Anyway, Zhukov rocked big time ! \m/

[Zhukov]

Thank you.

I always thought I heard 'EACH street'????, or have my ears playin tricks on me??

Or does this need to go in the mistaken lyrics thread now?????

I just read it out of the booklet. I only made one type-o: Connolly, who is Dave Connolly?

[Michael Wade]

Is this the Dave Connolly?:

At the risk that I'm missing the sarcasm here, he's the guy who played the trumpets on G.T.T, although I'd imagine he'd be pretty chuffed to find he's been written into Mother City too.

Where you get it???
