A comment in a previous thread got me to thinking how The Clash never lose their relevance.
Over the next few days, I'd like to highlight some lyrics that apply as much today to the time period they were recorded in.
Today, Wrong 'Em, Boyo:
Why do you try to cheat?
And trample people under your feet
Don't you know it is wrong?
To cheat the trying man
So you better stop, it is the wrong 'em boyo
You lie, steal, cheat and deceit
In such a small, small game
Don't you know it is wrong
THE OLD MAN SPOKE UP IN A BAR

A LIFETIME SERVING ONE MACHINE
