Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everywhere I hear the sound
Of marching charging feet boy
'Cause summer's here and the time is right
For fighting in the street boy
[Verse 2]
Well now what can a poor boy do?
Except to sing for a rock and roll band
'Cause in sleepy London town
There's just no place for
A street fighting man
[Verse 3]
Yeah, think the time is right
For a palace revolution
But where I live the game
To play is compromise solution
[Verse 4]
Well now what can a poor by do?
Except to sing for a rock and roll band
'Cause in sleepy London town
There's just no place for
A street fighting man
[Verse 5]
Yeah
[Verse 6]
Hey, say my name
It's called Disturbance
I'll shout, I'll scream
I'll kill the king
I'll rail at all his servants
[Verse 7]
Well what can a poor boy do?
Except to sing for a rock and roll band
'Cause in sleepy London town
There's just no place for
A street fighting man
