(get A) Grip (on Yourself) Lyrics - Rattus Norvegicus - Stranglers

Didn't have the money round to buy a Morry Thou 

Been around and seen a lot to shake me anyhow 

Begged and borrowed sometimes, I admit I even stole 

The worse crime that I ever did was playing rock 'n roll. 

But the money's no good 

Just get a grip on yourself 

But the money's no good 

Just get a grip on yourself 

Suffering convictions on a two-way stretch inside 

The air in here is pretty thin, I think I'll go outside 

Committed for insanity and crimes against the soul 

The worst crime that I ever did was play some rock 'n roll.

But the money's no good 

Just get a grip on yourself 

But the money's no good 

Just get a grip on yourself 

And you should know 

Now I find from week to week the sentence sticking fast 

Turn the corner, rub my eyes and hope the world will last 

Stranger from another planet welcome to our hole 

Just strap on your guitar and we'll play some rock 'n roll
