That's Entertainment [#][*]
A police car, a screaming sirenPneumatic drill and ripped up concreteA baby wailing, a stray dog howlingThe screech of brakes and lamplight blinkingThat's entertainmentThat's entertainmentA smash of glass and the rumble of bootsElectric train and a ripped up phone boothPaint splattered walls and the cry of a tom catLights going out and a kick in the ballsI said, "That's entertainmentThat's entertainment"Days of speed and slow time MondaysPissing down with rain on a boring WednesdayWatching the news and not eating your teaFreezing cold flat and death on the wallsI said, "That's entertainmentThat's entertainment"Waking up at 6 A.M. on a cool morningOpening the windows and breathing in petrolLetras de cancionesAmateur band rehearsing in a nearby yardWatching the telly and thinking 'bout your holidaysThat's entertainmentThat's entertainmentWaking up from bad news and smoking cigarettesCuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfumeHot summers day and sticky black tarmacFeeding ducks in the park and wishing you were far awayThat's entertainmentThat's entertainmentTwo lovers kissing at the scream of midnightTwo lovers missing the tranquility of solitudeGetting a cab and traveling on busesReading the graffiti about slashed seat affairsI said, "That's entertainmentThat's entertainment"
