Rudie Can't Fail - The Clash

Sing, Michael, sing

On the route of the nineteen bus

Hear them sayin'

How you get a rude and a reckless?

Don't you be so crude and feckless

You been drinking brew for breakfast

Rudie can't fail

We reply

I know that my life make you nervous

But I tell you that I can't live in service

Like the doctor who was born for a purpose

Rudie can't fail

I went to the market to realize my soul

What I need I just don't have

First they curse, then they press me till I hurt

We say Rudie can't fail

First you must cure your temper

Then you find a job in a paper

You need someone for a savior

Oh, Rudie can't fail

We reply

Now we get a rude and a reckless

We been seen lookin' cool an' speckless

We been drinking brew for breakfast

Rudie can't fail

I went to the market to realize my soul

'Cause what I need I just don't have

First they curse, then they press me till I hurt

Rudie can't fail

Okay! Okay!

So where you want to go today?

Hey boss man!

You're looking pretty smart

With your chicken skin suit

You think you're pretty hot

In the pork pie hat

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail

Rudy can't fail
