Rudie Can't Fail Lyrics - London Calling - The Clash

Sing, Michael, sing-on the route of the 19 Bus 

Hear them sayin' 

How you get a rude and a reckless? 

Don't you be so crude and a feckless 

You been drinking brew for breakfast 

Rudie can't fail 

So 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 REALISE MY SOUL 

'CAUSE WHAT I NEED I JUST DON'T HAVE 

FIRST THEY CURSE, THEN THEY PRESS ME TILL I HURT 

WE SAY RUDIE CAN'T FAIL

We hear them sayin' 

Now first you must cure your temper 

Then you find a job in the paper 

You need someone for a saviour 

Oh, Rudie can't fail 

We reply 

Now we get a rude and a reckless 

We been seen lookin' cool an' a speckless 

We been drinking brew for breakfast 

So Rudie can't fail 

Okay! 

So where you wanna go today? 

Hey boss man! 

You're looking pretty smart 

In your chicken skin suit 

Photos 

You think you're pretty hot 

In your pork pie hat 

But... Rudie can't fail 

Look out, look out... 

Sky juice!...10 cents a bottle!
