I Was a Dupe for the RCP Lyrics by MDC

Now More Than Ever

0

[Verse 1]
I was sitting at home and I watched TV
The phone rings, someone wants to speak to me
"No business as usual needs a benefit show"
And could our band play? They need to know
I said, "Sure you're not the RCP?"
"No really," the voice said, "Not me
We have some friends that are stuck in jail
And the money we collect could pay the bail"

[Verse 2]
I say, "No problem, we'll give it a go
We'd really like to help raise some dough
You got a place, you got a date?
Well, fine thеn, that's really great"
We gеt to the show and what do we see?
Banners and newspapers from the RCP
I found the man who had spoken to me
He said, "I was a dupe for the RCP"

[Verse 3]
I was a dupe for the RCP
Now everyone looks funny at me
A double agent for the FBI
They look at me and they wonder why
Now even my band looks weird at me
Could happen to anyone, can't you see?
My band says, "Dave, work on your poetry
Don't book us no more for the RCP"

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
We get to the show and what do we see?
Banners and newspapers from the RCP
I found the man who had spoken to me
He said, "I was a dupe for the RCP"
I was a dupe for the RCP
Now everyone looks funny at me
A double agent for the CIA
I tell them there's no way
Now even my band looks weird at me
Could happen to anyone, can't you see?
My band says, "Dave, work on your poetry
Don't book us no more for the RCP"

[Outro]
I was a dupe for the RCP
I was a dupe for the RCP
I was a dupe for the RCP
I was a dupe for the RCP
I was a dupe for the RCP
I was a dupe for the RCP
I was a dupe for the RCP
I was a dupe!
