Protection Racket 가사

1. Be quiet katie there is someone at the hatch You curse the darkness I'll strike a match Undoing the latch I tripped on the scales and fell Just as someone hit the reception bell The ghost of that injury still remains my ankle starts to swell just before it rains leaders of nations, wild alsations, crumbling foundations, I've lost my patience These big companies are giving us the squeeze Lets raise our glasses to mr. onassis Protection racket (hand over the packet) Rome needs cement (in this event) Go over to the till katie (the national) Pay this man his rent It's a standard procedure I forgot to mention that grandmas pension Will ease the rent book tension 2. A little birdie told me you've been syphoning the poor box I heard the knitting circle disscusing chubb locks Whats all the commotion? what do they expect? With no sign of a promotion I've lost my self respect You see I built this heap from scratch when I was poor now they're asking me to hoover the floor Splash some water over me slap round the face Did I miss a meeting I don't recognise the place The plug in the socket burns a hole in the pocket These big companies are giving us the squeeze Lets raise our glasses to mr. onassis Protection racket (hand over the packet) Rome needs cement (in this event) Go over to the till katie (the national) Pay this man his rent it's a standard procedure
