Safe European Home (London Music Machine - Thursday 27 July 1978) Songtext
von The Clash

Well, I just got back an? I wish I never leave now
(Where? d you go?)
Who that Martian arrival at the airport, yeah?
(Where? d you go?)

How many local dollars for a local anesthetic?
(Where? d you go?)
The Johnny on the corner was very sympathetic
(Where? d you go?)

I went to the place where every white face
Is an invitation to robbery
An? sitting here in my safe European home
Don? t wanna go back there again

Wasn? t I lucky, wouldn? t it be lovely?
(Where? d you go?)
Send us all cards and have a lay in on Sunday
(Where? d you go?)


I was there for two weeks, so how come I never tell now
(Where? d you go?)
That natty dread drinks at the Sheraton Hotel, yeah?
(Where? d you go?)

I went to the place where every white face
Is an invitation to robbery
An? sitting here in my safe European home
Don? t wanna go back there again

Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah

They got the sun and they got the palm tress
(Where? d you go?)
They got the weed and they got the taxies
(Where? d you go?)

Whoa, the harder they come and the home of ol? Bluebeat
(Where? d you go?)
I? d stay and be a tourist but can? t take the gun play
(Where? d you?)

I went to the place where every white face
Is an invitation to robbery
An? sitting here in my safe European home
Don? t wanna go back there again


What? Rudie come from Jamaica, Rudie can? t fail
Rudie come from Jamaica, Rudie can? t fail
Rudie come from Jamaica, ′cause Rudie can? t fail
Rudie come From Jamaica, Rudie can't fail

Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie can? t fail
Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie can? t fail
A-Rudie loot and a-Rudie shoot and a-Rudie come up then back down

Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, come up then back down
Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie can? t fail
Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie, Rudie he can? t fail

Nice guy European home
Explosive European home
And twenty-four Track European home
[Incomprehensible]
