Lyrics for Long Time Jerk by The Clash
Songwriters: Simonon, Paul; Strummer, Joe; Jones, Mick
Asked the band to play her a beat
Oh my heart With that long time jerk
Long time jerk
Between the taker and the giver
Ohh my heart
They make you look better in a mirror
Bring on those tapes from the past
And I've forgotten how to worry
This girl my eye was following
Oh, through lanes and streets and houses
I've forgotten how to worry
Against the odds I realize
Long, long, long, long, long
Long time jerk she did it to me first
Babbling words of preachers
Oh I felt my heart
Singin' she'd do that long time jerk
Long time jerk
Oh your heart
Before inventing time
Feel that long time jerkin'
She made me re-invent the world
And reversing rush of time
She hit me where it hurts
Ah, but it took me back to that wonderland
Ah! Say do that long time jerk
Now my heart will burst
And the light shone through the trees
Against the odds I realize
This struggle could be fun!
This struggle could be won!
And I don't know how to run
And I don't know how to run
I witnessed long ago
Before inventing time
We dance
Now my heart will burst oh no
Feel that long time jerk
Sayin' don't bury me no more
Oh, she hit me where it hurts
She hit me where it hurts
As they were dancing in the evening
