Jam - Thats Entertainment

G Em
a police car and a screaming siren –
a pneumatic drill and ripped up concrete –
a baby wailing and stray dog howling –
the screech of brakes and lamp light blinking –
Am Fmaj7 Am Fmaj7
that’s entertainment . that’s entertainment

( that it all the way through )

a smash of glass and a rumble of boots –
an electric train and a ripped up ’phone booth –
paint splattered walls and the cry of a tomcat –
lights going out and a kick in the balls –
that’s entertainment .
days of speed and slow time mondays –
pissing down with rain on a boring wednesday –
watching the news and not eating your tea –
a freezing cold flat and damp on the walls –
that’s entertainment .
waking up at 6 A . m . on a cool warm morning –
opening the windows and breathing in petrol –
an amateur band rehearsing in a nearby yard –
watching the tele and thinking about your holidays –
that’s entertainment .
waking up from bad dreams and smoking cigarettes –
cuddling a warm girl and smelling stale perfume –
a hot summer’s day and sticky black tarmac –
fedding ducks in the park and wishing you were far away –
that’s entertainment .
two lovers kissing amongst the scream of midnight –
two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude –
getting a cab and travelling on buses –
reading the graffiti about slashed seat affairs –
that’s entertainment .
