Letra

    I went to a party at the local county jail
    All the cons were dancing and the band began to wail
    But the guys were indiscreet
    They were brawling in the street
    At the local dance at the local county jail
    Well the band were playing
    And the booze began to flow
    But the sound came over on the police car radio
    Down at Precinct 49
    Having a tear-gas of a time
    Sergeant Baker got a call from the governor of the county jail
    Load up, load up, load up with rubber bullets
    Load up, load up, load up with rubber bullets
    I love to hear those convicts squeal
    It's a shame these slugs ain't real
    But we can't have dancin' at the local county jail
    Sergeant Baker and his men made a bee-line for the jail
    And for miles around
    You could hear the sirens wail
    There's a rumor goin' round death row
    That a fuse is gonna blow
    At the local hop at the local county jail
    Whatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do
    Whatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do
    Sergeant Baker started talkin'
    With a bullhorn in his hand
    He was cool, he was clear
    He was always in command
    He said "Blood will flow;
    Here Padre
    Padre you talk to your boys..."
    "Trust in me -
    God will come to set you free"
    Well we don't understand
    Why you called in the National Guard
    When Uncle Sam is the one
    Who belongs in the exercise yard
    We all got balls and brains
    But some's got balls and chains
    At the local dance at the local county jail
    Load up, load up, load up with rubber bullets
    Load up, load up, load up with rubber bullets
    Is it really such a crime
    For a guy to spend his time
    At the local dance at the local county jail
    At the local dance at the local county jail
    Whatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do
    Whatcha gonna do about it, whatcha gonna do

    10CC - Silly Love
    ===================

    Hey toots, you put the life into living
    You brought a sigh into sight
    Ah hon, you make my legs turn to water
    You bring the stars out at night
    But they ain't half so bright
    As your eyes
    Gee whiz, you take the beauty out of beautiful
    You play the strings of my heart
    Oh babe, you take the wonder out of wonderful
    Oh my, oh my, and my, if you were mine
    The rain would turn to sweet sweet wine
    Well he's been up all night
    Breakin' his head in two to write
    A little sonnet for his chickadee
    But between you and me
    I think its sssssssssssilly. Silly
    Ooh treas, you got a smile like a Rembrandt
    Aha, you got the style of a queen
    Oh dear, you are the petal of a rosebud
    Next to you all the others could be weeds
    You're the only one my garden needs
    Ooh, you know the art of conversation
    Must be dying
    Ooh, when a romance depends on
    Cliches and toupees and threepes
    We're up to here with moonin' and junin'
    If you want to sound sincere -
    Don't rely on Crosby's croonin' -
    Take a little time
    Make up your own rhyme
    Don't rely on mine
    `Cos it's sssssssssilly - silly - silly - silly

    10CC - Life Is A Minestrone
    =============================

    I'm dancing on the White House lawn
    Sipping tea by the Taj Mahal at dawn
    Hanging round the gardens of Babylon
    Minnie Mouse has got it all sewn up
    She gets more fan mail than the Pope
    She takes the mickey out of all my phobias
    Like signing cheques to ward off double pneumonia
    Life is a minestrone
    Served up with parmesan cheese
    Death is a cold Lasagne
    Suspended in deep freeze
    I'm leaning on the Tower of Pisa
    Had an eyeful of the tower in France
    I'm hanging round the gardens of Madison
    And the seat of learning
    And the flush of success
    Relieves a constipated mind
    I'm like a gourmet in a skid row diner
    A fitting menu for a dilettante
    Life is a minestrone
    Served up with parmesan cheese
    Death is a cold Lasagne
    Suspended in deep freeze
    Love is a fire of flaming brandy
    Upon a crepe suzette
    Let's get this romance cooking, honey
    But let us not forget
    Life is a minestrone
    Served up with parmesan cheese
    Death is a cold Lasagne
    Suspended in deep freeze
