Elvis Costello & the Attractions

Clubland
With a handful of backhanders and a bevy of beautyYou're going off limitsGoing off dutyGoing off the railsGoing off with bootyThey tell tales of fiction found on all the criminal typesLead to a higher ranking man or a face with thin red stripesThe boys next doorThe mums and dadsNew weds and nearly-deadsHave you ever been had in clubland? There's a piece in someone's pocket to do the dirty workYou've come to shoot the ponyThey've come to do the jerkThey leave him half way to paradiseThey leave you half way to blissThe ladies' invitation never seemed like thisThe boys next doorThe mums and dadsNew weds and nearly-deadsHave you ever been had in clubland? The long arm of the law slides up the outskirts of townLetras de cancionesMeanwhile in clubland they are ready to pull them downHeyThe right to work is traded in for the right to refuse admissionDon't pass out now, there's no refund(when) did you find out what you were missingThe crowd is taking forty winks minus ten percentYou barely get required sleep to go lingering with contemptmentThursday to SaturdayMoney's gone alreadySome things come in common these daysYour hands and work aren't steadyThe boys next doorThe mums and dadsNew weds and nearly-deadsHave you ever been had in clubland?
