Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll Lyrics by Ian Dury

New Boots and Panties!! (2005 Reissue)

0

[Chorus]
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Is all my brain and body need
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Is very good indeed
[Verse 1]
Keep your silly ways or throw them out the window
The wisdom of your ways, I've been there and I know
Lots of other ways, what a jolly bad show
If all you ever do is business you don't like
[Chorus]
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Is very good indeed
[Verse 2]
Every bit of clothing ought to make you pretty
You can cut the clothing, grey is such a pity
I should wear the clothing of Mr. Walter Mitty
See my tailor, he's called Simon, I know it's going to fit
[Bridge]
Here's a little bit of advice
You're quite welcome, it is free
Don't do nothing that is cut price
You know what that'll make you be
They will try their tricky device
Trap you with the ordinary
Get your teeth into a small slice
The cake of liberty
[Chorus]
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
Sex and drugs and rock and roll (Ow, ow)
Sex and drugs and rock and roll (Ow, ow, ow, ow)
Sex and drugs and rock and roll (Wuh, ah, ah, ah)
Sex and drugs and rock and roll (Ah, ow)
Sex and drugs and rock and roll
(Sex and drugs and rock and roll)
(Sex and drugs and rock and roll)
