Rudie Can't Fail - Joe Strummer

How you get so rude and reckless?

Don’t you be so crude and feckless

You been drinkin' brew for breakfast

Rudie can’t fail, no, no

So we reply

I know that my life makes you nervous

But I tell you that I can’t live in service

Like the doctor who’s born for a purpose

Rudie can’t fail

I went to the market to realize my soul

What I need I just don’t have

First they curse, then they press me 'til I hurt

Rudie can’t fail

First you must cure your temper

Then find a job in a paper

You need someone for a saviour

Rudie can’t fail, oh no

Now we get a’rude and a’reckless

To been seen looking cool and speckless

An' drinking brew for breakfast

Rudie can’t fail, oh no

I went to the market to realize my soul

'Cause what I need I just don’t have

First they curse, then they press me 'til I hurt

Rudie can’t fail

Looking pretty cool with a chicken skin suit

Looking pretty hot in your pork pie hat

Rudie can’t fail

Rudie can’t fail

Rudie can’t fail

Rudie can’t fail

Rudie can’t fail

Rudie can’t fail

Rudie can’t fail

Rudie can’t fail
