Don't be disappointed... I saw them in 1979. Strummer lying on his back on the floor singing Armagideon Time. I also saw The Stones and Bowie in 73. I'm old now. You'll experience things I'll never see. Don't kid yourself, it's good to be young. Best wishes.
Brilliant. I didn't realize until now that the bass riff doesn't change throughout the whole track. Paul Simonon's fingers must have been falling off by the end of it. :-)
the live version they did was amazing...especially the end he kept going and was like....and I know this song is long...and I know this song is fvckin' long....lol!!
Saw these guys when I was a teen...Favorite bassist of all time-Paul Simonon. This along with Guns of Brixton are my favorite Clash songs....Fantastic vid....Thanks for bringing back some great memories....

I’m 30 years old and never heard this. This is now my favorite song of 2022 I can’t stop moving to this it’s SO GOOD
Welcome to the party! 🎉 👍🏻
Préférée de 2022? les Clashs ?
Moi c'était 1990 17ans et c'était déjà pas récent
punk wave and funk in one pioneers damn!
that bass
Norman Watt-Roy.
Bad ass.
Ring, ring, it's 7:00 A.M.
Move yourself to go again
Cold water in the face
Brings you back to this awful place
Knuckle merchants and your bankers too
Must get up and learn those rules
Weather man and the crazy chief
One says sun and one says sleet
A.M., the F.M. the P.M. too
Churnin' out that boogaloo
Gets you up and it gets you out
But how long can you keep it up?
Gimme Honda, gimme Sony
So cheap and real phony
Hong Kong dollar, Indian cents
English pounds and Eskimo pence
You lot, what?
Don't stop, give it all you got
You lot, what?
Don't stop, yeah
You lot, what?
Don't stop, give it all you got
You lot, what?
Don't stop, yeah
Working for a rise, better my station
Take my baby to sophistication
Seen the ads, she thinks it's nice
Better work hard, I seen the price
Never mind that it's time for the bus
We got to work and you're one of us
Clocks go slow in a place of work
Minutes drag and the hours jerk
Yeah, wave bye, bye
(When can I tell 'em what I do?)
(In a second, maan, alright Chuck)
Wave bub-bub-bub-bye to the boss
It's our profit, it's his loss
But anyway the lunch bells ring
Take one hour, do your thang
Cheeesboiger
What do we have for entertainment?
Cops kickin' gypsies on the pavement
Now the news has snapped to attention
Lunar landing of the dentist convention
Italian mobster shoots a lobster
Seafood restaurant gets out of hand
A car in the fridge, a fridge in the car
Like cowboys do in TV land
You lot, what?
Don't stop, give it all you got
You lot, what?
Don't stop, huh
You lot, what?
Don't stop, give it all you got, yeah
You lot, what?
Don't stop
So get back to work and sweat some more
The sun will sink and we'll get out the door
It's no good for man to work in cages
Hit the town, he drinks his wages
You're frettin', you're sweatin'
But did you notice, you ain't gettin'
You're frettin', you're sweatin'
But did you notice, not gettin' anywhere
Don't you ever stop, a long enough to start
Take your car outta that gear
Don't you ever stop, long enough to start
Get your car outta that gear
Karlo Marx and Frederick Engels
Came to the checkout at the seven on eleven
Marx was skint but he had sense
Engels lent him the necessary pence
What have we got? Yeah, ooh
What have we got? Yeah, ooh
What have we got? Magnificence
What have we got?
Luther King and Mahatma Gandhi
Went to the park to check on the game
But they was murdered by the other team
Who went on to win fifty-nil
You can be true, you can be false
You'll be given the same reward
Socrates and Milhous Nixon
Both went the same way through the kitchen
Plato the Greek or Rin Tin Tin
Who's more famous to the billion millions?
News flash, 'Vacuum cleaner sucks up budgie'
Ooh, bye-bye, bub-bye
Thank you!
Thanks ✌️
That last line - Sure it's not a hint at Budgie - the drummer of Siouxie's?
That bass riff 🤩🤩🤩
Sometimes I think Topper Headon is the most underrated drummer in history.
yes
nobody better than The Clash
Great track... Bass is awesome
‘Cold water in the face, brings you back to this awful place.’
I suggested THIS song to the company 'Spotify' song list where I work. Required listening in MY opinion.
NYC in the early 1980's; I miss those days, sometimes.
Yeah I know exactly what you mean👊
Life was more fun and safer.
@@bobbiemoore5855 Well more fun, yes....safer? I don't know.
Old school NYC Rules.
The Clash. Nr 1,👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎😍😍😍😍😢
Omg what a sound.
Someone listening today?
Yes. This is The Clash!!!!!!!!!
May 16, 2019.
Back when The Clash was the greatest band in the world and New York City was awful
Wait, New York City is no longer awful?
@@TheMikedngb it was better when it was awful….
One of the first pop homages to hip hop. Great song! =D
AGREE!! I'm surprised it isn't sampled.....I nominate Travis Scott 💯
didn't know there was a video for this...….so freakin' awesome mate
emblematique des années 80!!! 57 ans et je m eclate toujours autant qu en 1980!!!
Great song. The bass line seems to have been picked up from Gil Scott-Heron's The Bottle.
Nochmal welcher Idiot findet die nicht mega?

My biggest disappointment in life is not being old enough to see the clash live. If only I was born 10 or 15 years earlier I might of had a chance.
Don't be disappointed... I saw them in 1979. Strummer lying on his back on the floor singing Armagideon Time. I also saw The Stones and Bowie in 73. I'm old now. You'll experience things I'll never see. Don't kid yourself, it's good to be young. Best wishes.
MAGNIFICIENT !
Chuck D of PE...brought me here..
1. I didn't know this song had a music video for it.
2. I wish this single version was available on Spotify. (I've lost that version on my laptop).
This is the short version.

Brilliant. I didn't realize until now that the bass riff doesn't change throughout the whole track. Paul Simonon's fingers must have been falling off by the end of it. :-)
It’s not Paul
