Testo Hanging Around - Live - The Stranglers

Testo della canzone Hanging Around - Live (The Stranglers), tratta dall'album Live (X-Cert)

Big girl in the red dress
She's just trying to impress us
And she's got the ballet fever
But she doesn't make a sound
She's just hanging around
She's hanging around
Down the cobra alley
With the hustlers big and burly
There's a million albums selling
And the buyers can't be found
They're just hanging around
They're just hanging around
Christ! He told his mother
Christ! He told her not to bother
'Cause he's all right in the city
'Cause he's high above the ground
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
One of them comes closer
He's got a monkey on his shoulder
And the monkey's getting gruner
But his eyes are on the ground
He's just hanging around
He's hanging around
I'm moving in the cool hand
With the leather all around me
And the sweat is getting steamy
But their eyes are on the ground
They're just hanging around
They're just hanging around
Christ! He told his mother
Christ! He told her not to bother
'Cause he's all right in the city
'Cause he's high above the ground
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
Christ! He told his mother
Christ! He told her not to bother
'Cause he's all right in the city
'Cause he's high above the ground
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
He's just hanging around (Hanging around)
Just watch him hanging around (Hanging around)
Like you hanging around (Hanging around)
Like me hanging around (Hanging around)
Right, I'd like to make an announcement
If you could stop spitting for one second
And keep your lug-holes open
Uh, I know you like spitting
But I don't particularly like being spat at while I'm playing
But I mean, if you get off on it then
That's up to your intellect, I suppose
But, uh, I'd just like to say something
On Tuesday night there's a gig for the
Preservation of Rights of Prisoners
Now Jubilee year, the origin of Jubilee means "set people free"
And they're not doing it this year
So there's a gig for the Prisoners Rights
Association at Middlesex Poly on Tuesday night
And it's featuring 999 and Stray
So if you want to help the prisoners
Go along there and have a good time
