Blue Meanies – Do The Tightbelt lyrics

Performing hold-ups is the key
To financial security,
Convenient stores, fotomats,
ATMs, wear a mask.
Block out surveillance, don't load your gun,
Wear a scowl, it's all good fun.
Clip the phone lines, lock the doors,
Take no prisoners, successful scores.

Come on do the tightbelt, let's do the tightbelt,
She did the tightbelt, he did the tightbelt.
Everybody tightbelt, you gotta tightbelt,
Come on do the tightbelt, let's do the tightbelt.

Desperation, is the plea,
Judicial systems will agree.
Good stories told are bought and sold,
Empathise with misfortune souls.
Do what you can to feed your clan,
Keep 'em warm, it's mouth to hand.
Take from the rich, not the poor,
Take what you need, not anymore.

Come on do the tightbelt, let's do the tightbelt,
She did the tightbelt, he did the tightbelt.
Everybody tightbelt, you gotta tightbelt,
Come on do the tightbelt, let's do the tightbelt.

Sing a song of hope and salvation,
We'll survive.
Sing a song of hope and salvation,
We're alive.
Sing a song of hope and salvation,
We'll survive.
Sing a song of hope and salvation,
We're alive.

Performing hold-ups is the key
To financial security.

Come on do the tightbelt, let's do the tightbelt,
She did the tightbelt, he did the tightbelt.
Everybody tightbelt, you gotta tightbelt,
Come on do the tightbelt, let's do the tightbelt.
