Mighty Mighty Bosstones - Rudie Can't Fail lyrics

[Clash cover song]

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 feckless You've been drinking brew for breakfast Rudie can't fail So we reply I know that my life makes you nervous But I tell you 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 realize my soul Cause what I need I just can't have First they curse, then they press me till I'm hurt Rudie can't fail Say you must kill your temper Then you find a job in the paper You need someone for a savior Rudie can't fail oh no We reply Now we get rude and a reckless We been seen lookin' cool and speckless We been drinking brew for breakfast Rudie can't fail oh no I went to the market to realize my soul cause what I need I just can't have no way First they curse, then they press me till I'm hurt Rudie Rudie can't fail ho! Rudie can't fail Rudie can't fail Are you happy with the trend? Or would you rather see it end? You're looking pretty smart In your father's old suit You're lookin pretty hot Is that a pork pie hat? Rudie Rudie can't fail.
