Somebody Got Murdered

SOMEBODY GOT MURDERED As recorded by The Clash (From the 1980 Album SANDINISTA!) [Intro]    /    / x3           [Verse 1] Someone lights a cigarette While ridin’ in a car Some old guy takes a swig And passes back the jar But where they were last night No one can remember Somebody got murdered Goodbye for keeps forever [Chorus] Somebody   got murdered Somebody’s  dead forever [Verse 2] And you’re mindin’ your own business Carryin’ spare change You wouldn’t cosh a barber You’re hungry all the same I been very tempted To grab it from the till I been very hungry But not enough to kill [Chorus] Somebody   got murdered Somebody’s  dead forever [Verse 3] Somebody got murdered His name cannot be found A small stain on the pavement They’ll scrub it off the ground As the daily crowd disperses No one says that much Somebody got murdered And it left me with a touch [Chorus] Somebody   got murdered Somebody’s  dead forever [Outro] Sounds like murder Those shouts Are they drunk down below? Sounds like murder Those screams! Are they drunk down below? Say my watch stopped some time ago Sounds like murder Those screams! Drunk down below
