The Tiger Lillies - Soho Clipper Blues lyrics

You're tired of the men Who pretend that they love you You're tired and you're shot through On the street doing tricks That is what you do You steal and rob them, you screw In the street the men are pa**ing And they are pa**ing you Ask "Do you want a girl to screw?" Send them to a girl With instructions what to do But that flat and that girl are lies, too Oh clipper blues Clipper blues Then you give them a key Take their money, too Then the goose chase they do Well there ain't no room There ain't no girl, too But the money, well, that will do And in Soho call you a clipper That's what they call you Clip away money you do Clip away money Lying and stealing, too Well for a living, that's what you do Clipper blue Clipper blue And if they come back Screaming and cursing you Well you'll use your right hook, too You learn through the years Fight for survival, too Beat up, scratched and bruised You stand up to men I've seen you fight them, too You know just what to do You throw your right hook You knock'em out cold, too And then you take their wallet, too Yeah clipper blues Clipper blues You know when The writing's on the wall, you do You know when to run and hide, too And so make a living The wind on Soho blue Well stealing is what you do Well clipper blues Clipper blues (x4)
