The Cloth (1)-Billy Bragg

[00:02.557] Did you believe those things [00:05.015] We read in the papers? [00:08.169] And never mind that, can you meet me [00:10.298] Down at the Time Warp tonight? [00:13.016] [00:13.646] Oh you look divine, [00:15.692] That suit would get you into anywhere. [00:19.718] Tonight I'll be, as you can see, [00:22.434] The idol of an island far, far away [00:24.579] [00:25.612] A man of straw in cloth of gold, [00:32.127] Look into his eyes at the days of old, [00:37.365] And bow to the cloth, [00:43.861] And bow to the cloth. [00:49.097] [00:52.211] Can you believe those things [00:53.803] We've seen in the papers? [00:58.086] And never mind that, can you get [00:59.720] to the bar before the next egg starts? [01:02.123] [01:03.070] The word goes round the eyes of a wife, [01:06.180] And magazines with shiny pages, [01:09.275] And my hay-head where will it stop? [01:12.220] And the boys in the shop continue to bop [01:15.012] [01:15.493] A man of straw in cloth of gold, [01:21.481] Look into his eyes to the days of old, [01:26.923] And bow to the cloth, [01:33.064] Bow to the cloth. [01:38.948] [01:54.129] Heading down, getting further down, [01:57.334] And we've hit an iceberg, [02:00.104] But I don't care what the people think, [02:03.368] I will drink and drink till the damn ship sinks [02:06.009] [02:06.263] A man of straw in cloth of gold, [02:12.390] Look into his eyes to the days of old, [02:18.301] A drowning man in a metal coat, [02:24.053] The prince has fallen into the moat, [02:29.857] To the cloth, to the cloth.
