Clash – Living In Fame Lyrics

So you've got to live up to your name or else I'll put you to shame
Listen
If you say you a selector, you a fe have good selection
And I say if you say you a de special
Man, I say, I want to know your potential
You a-say you a madness
You a-say you a de best
But when I put you 'pon you feet a-some, a-some a-say you can't play de beat
And I hear you say a-Clash a-you ruler
Say a-Clash sound cooler, eh
Say a-Clash sound sweeter
And now-a-days man a measure mile in a metre, eh
Live up to your name or else you die in shame
And a-so me say fe live up to your name
A-so me tell you say you die in shame
Some a dem a bodysnatcher
Some a dem a barracuda, eh
But who a-know fe me Jah, Jah
Fe me Jah a me creator, eh
Flying saucers, rock-and-roll
Natty Dread a fe be in control
It's all in the whirlwind
I say you've gone with the Blockhead
And I say me say dat some a dem a Sex Pistol
Nipple erectors
A-so me tell you set dem that a-smoke a-man a gone
I ain't grow on a farm
And I'll tell you 'bout the X-generation

Me know dem a victimed 'cause dem no know fe me sweet Jah, Jah, eh
Clash a-you ruler
Say a-Clash sound cooler
And I tell you say a-Clash sound sweeter
And now-a-days man measure mile in a metre
A-none a dem deh measure gallon in a litre (Only)
And I tell you say me know dem a cheat ya
'Cause when you living inna fame, you got to live up to your name or else a suffer and you die inna shame
And I tell you say it's all in the game, eh

Some a-say dem a selector
Dem a fe have good selection or else deh moving in the wrong direction
And deh no know dis a reggae vibration
And a-so me say a-Clash a-you ruler
And dis ya one a-say it a musically cooler, eh

Me say fe live up to your name or else you suffer and you die inna shame
'Cause when you living inna fame a-so me tell you say it's all in the game
And so me talkin' about Specials and Madness beats
Big body snatcher, ?, eh
Flying saucers, rock-and-roll
See you gone in the whirlwind
And I tell you say, a-you a de Blockhead
And some will tell you dat you dreader than dread
And a-some a say a-Clash a-you ruler
See a-Clash sound cooler, aye
Clash sound sweeter
Man a measure mile in a metre, eh
When you living inna fame, you got to live up to your name or else you suffer and you die inna shame
It's all in the game, eh
This is the game of life
We no wa' no strife
Name of the game
We no wa' no strife
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no

Fuckin' hell Raqueem

Have you ever asked yourself
Who holds the key that winds up Big Ben?
