You Turn The Screws
You turn the screws,
You tear down the bridge,
Flimsy as it is,
It's business like,ÂÂ
You shake my hand,
You break up the band,
Flimsy as it is,
It's open mike,ÂÂ
Punk rock,
Red white and blue,ÂÂ
You twist the knife,
Then go home to kiss your wife,
A bigger better slice,
Is what you like,ÂÂ
You kick the sand,
You get the upper hand,
You sell it to Japan,
It's natural,ÂÂ
Punk rock,
Red white and blue,ÂÂ
You turn the screws,
It's what you choose to do,
You think that I,
Must turn them too,ÂÂ
You think that I,
Must be so satisfied,
I stay inside,
I wonder why,ÂÂ
And the cement,
Makes or gets him, already,
One good time at a time,ÂÂ
They're pouring it slowly and steady,
You're showing me where I can sign,
What I can expect to find,ÂÂ
But how can you say,
You'll be happy,
When you turn the screws,ÂÂ
You turn the screws,
Is what you choose to do,
You turn the screws,
Is what you choose to do,ÂÂ
You think that I,
Must turn them too,ÂÂ
You turn the screws,
Is what you choose to do,
You turn the screws,
Is what you choose to do,ÂÂ
You turn the screws...ÂÂ

Vieux marais insalubres, émanations putrides
Comme une nuit chaude perlée d'air humide
Rampe et s'entrelace en lourdeurs orageuses
Il nous reste encore sifflant, hurlant dans le vent
Des traînées de jazz, de rues contigües
Ils nous reste toujours bas-fonds éventrés
Où se larmoie le souffle d'années fastueuses
Porté par le fleuve, par un soleil de mort
Lumière diffuse et folle halo onirique
Dans la moiteur profonde rÃÂ
